Foldable shipping container launches
29 October 2024
Compact Container Systems (CCS) has launched the SeaFold HC 40’ container.
THE FIVE-IN-ONE foldable shipping container is designed to improve operating inefficiencies, reduce unnecessary container movements, and reduce carbon emissions.
With over 20% of all ISO containers returning to their origination Port locations empty, the SeaFold 40’ has the potential to cut the cost of repositioning containers by 56%, storage space by 80%, and carbon emissions by up to 70%.
CCS chairman and chief executive officer Charlie Santos-Buch, says: “The opportunity to place five of our folded containers in the same slot as one 40’ HC standard container is a game changer in managing container movements, maximising storage capacity, and greatly reducing carbon emissions.”
The SeaFold 40’ is compatible with all standard lift equipment used in most ports, terminals and depots. No special equipment is needed to operated the container.
Santos-Buch will be speaking at Intermodal Europe in Rotterdam on 12th November at 12.45pm and is available at the Container Owners Association pavillion. Live demonstrations of the container will also be offered off site at a local depot upon request.
