Mastering the Extraordinary

How we tackle special container transport

In global trade, standard container shipping is the norm. But when it comes to oversized, overweight, or irregularly shaped cargo, conventional solutions fall short. This is where special container transport comes in — delivering tailor-made shipping solutions that break through the limits of size and shape.

What Are Special Containers?

Special containers are non-standard containers designed for transporting unique cargo, including:

  • Open-Top Containers: Top can be opened for overhead loading and unloading
  • Flat Rack Containers: No top or sides, ideal for extra-wide or extra-tall cargo
  • Platform / Frame Containers: Only a base and frame with no sidewalls or roof — extremely high load capacity
  • Reefer Containers: Equipped with temperature control for temperature-sensitive goods
  • Ventilated Containers: Fitted with ventilation systems for cargo requiring air circulation

Our Expertise in Special Container Transport

Professional Pre-Treatment & Packaging

Professional cargo packaging at our facility

At our facility, every piece of special cargo undergoes careful measurement and assessment. Our packaging engineers design bespoke packaging solutions based on cargo characteristics — from waterproofing and moisture protection to shock absorption — ensuring nothing is left to chance during long-distance transport.

Precision Loading Plan Design

The key to special container transport lies in scientific loading plans. Our engineering team designs optimal loading schemes based on the cargo's center of gravity, weight distribution, and transport route, ensuring safety and stability throughout the journey.

Customized Securing Measures
