There is not much difference between special containers and ordinary containers. Due to the needs of certain products, different designs and modifications have been made to the structure and equipment of the container. And because of the different goods transported, there are many classifications of special containers. Which company is better for special containers? It just depends on the variety of products. Next, we will briefly introduce the main types of special containers.








1. Open top special container


This is a container with no top or open top. When loading and unloading goods, a crane is used to load or unload heavy goods from the top of the box. This type of container is suitable for loading glass panels, steel products, plywood, machinery and other super high cargo, heavy cargo that can be fixed by the side wall, and cargo that is difficult to load and unload from the door and must be loaded and unloaded from the top of the box.


2. Frame type special container


This is a container that can be removed without the top and walls and the end walls, leaving only the bottom and four corner columns to bear the cargo. This type of container is mainly used for long, overweight, light foam, heavy machinery, steel, steel pipes, bare equipment, etc. that are not suitable for general cargo containers or open-top containers. Oversized cargo, cargo that is not afraid of wind and rain, cargo that needs to be loaded from the top or side of the box, and cargo that needs to be fixed inside the box.


3. Bulk special container


This is a container used to load bulk powder and granular goods such as soybeans, rice, malt, flour, feed, cement, resin, borax, chemical raw materials, etc. For some goods that need phytosanitary quarantine, such as imported grain, some need to be fumigated and disinfected at anchorages outside the port. Bulk containers may be provided with openings for fumigation, as well as fumigation gas outlets, and such containers may be required to remain completely airtight during fumigation.


4. Tank-shaped special container


This is a container suitable for loading liquid cargo such as alcohol, oil, chemicals, dangerous goods, etc. This type of container has special structures and equipment suitable for loading this type of cargo. When loading, the goods enter through the loading hole at the top of the tank; when unloading, the goods flow out from the bottom discharge hole by gravity, or are sucked out from the top loading port.


High-quality special containers can be used repeatedly and have sufficient strength. Special containers can also be quickly loaded and unloaded, transferring from one means of transport to another. The most important point is that the specifications and design of the container should facilitate the loading and unloading of goods. For the transportation industry, the most important thing is time and efficiency.
