Sea containers

Offshore Container – multiturn propelled cargo device designed for storage or transportation of piece and bulk cargo.
Containers made of iron or aluminum in the form of a rectangular block. In practice, most applications have received universal containers (sea containers). Containers provide a greater degree of safety of the goods, which is associated with the following factors:
Hard to open without leaving visible traces;
It can be locked with a lock and seal, similar to railway cars, auto-trailers;
Chance to use seals of high quality and reliable construction;
Containers are adapted for the transportation of goods in mixed messages and can be transported on a “door to door” with a minimum of delay and openings to check the contents, which in turn helps to reduce the possibility of theft of the goods.
Transportation of standard containers is carried out by any mode of transport: truck, rail, sea and air transport.
Distinguish universal and specialized containers. Universal containers are not designed to carry any special types of goods and are completely closed, a simple steel “box”. The universal containers carry a wide range of goods, from industrial production to the personal belongings of people. Specialized containers are used when you need to transport goods, especially sensitive to temperature conditions, pressure and other parameters. For example, insulated containers, which have limited heat transfer between the internal and the external environment, or refrigerated containers, which have special temperature conditions.
