Sea containers: the success of standardised dimensions
The reason that shipping containers have become so popular in the transport world is that they can be easily loaded from a ship onto a train or truck. This saves a lot of time during transshipment and allows companies to work more efficiently. The most common size is TEU. This stands for Twenty feet Equivalent Unit, popularly called a 20-footer. 20 feet is approximately 6 metres.
In addition to this size, there are a number of standard sizes:
- 20 ft
- 20 ft highcube
- 40 ft
- 45 ft
The 7 most common shipping containers
Because many different goods are transported, there are different types of shipping containers. The most common are:
- Standard shipping containers made of steel or aluminium for the transport of general cargo
- Reefer containers that keep perishable goods at the right temperature
- Platform containers with an extra reinforced floor for heavy loads
- Bulk containers for bulk and break bulk goods
- Tank containers allow you to transport liquids and gases under pressure
- Insulated containers with an external cooling motor are still used for products like flowers
- Open-top containers are covered with a tarpaulin and are therefore ideal for large goods that do not fit in a standard shipping container
