Compared to fixed-end type, collapsible flatracks have end walls that fold. The flushfolding collapsible flatrack, the most sophisticated of its types has end walls which fold flush with the base.
Flatracks are dedicated for the carriage of heavy, bulky as well as over height and/ or over width items.They also permit the stacking of several empty containers into one 'bundle' for empty repositionning. Their base is often designed to transport heavy material. Some flats are 45T tested.
The flatracks with collapsible ends also permit the transportation of over length cargo.

40'-45' Pallet Wide units were specifically designed with the 1.2 m Euro pallet in mind. The equipment, with its 2.45 m internal width, ensures optimum utilization of space. Shippers benefit by being able to load 5 additional 1.2mx0.8m euro pallets than in a standard ISO 45 ft container (or additional 1.2x1m pallets). Total per tier =33 euro pallets in a pallet wide i.o. 27 euro pallets in a standard ISO 45ft containers (or 24 x 1.2x1m i/o 21) These containers are in compliance with the UE regulations. Financially speaking, this additional capacity can reduce through distribution costs by 15% on more. Such optimal utilization, with the avoidance of broken stows, prevents cargo movement. This may remove the need for the securing of cargo and so improves dispatch times whilst also reducing the cost of product packaging.

Innovative, planet-friendly containers
Our new containers have a floor made of bamboo, a plant that grows more rapidly and can be harvested after 4 to 7 years rather than the 60 years required for the tropical timber traditionally used.
A light-steel container generation using highly resilient steel enables us to save 500 kg per tare for a high-cube cargo container, leading to a saving of 1 to 2 tons of fuel per day for a 10,000 TEU ship, for example. That translates into 3 to 6 tons fewer carbon emissions for cargo shipments.
Our refrigerated containers use a low-consumption technology that cuts electricity consumption by two-thirds. That reduces carbon emissions and can save tons of fuel over the course of journeys.
Our containers use next-generation connectivity that can continuously monitor your cargo when- and wherever it is. Our Smart dry container solution helps optimize your operations and cuts the operating costs arising from your cargo shipments.
Our dry containers are totally closed and waterproof with a rigid floor so that they resist to any eventuality. They are also completely adaptable to the type of merchandise you wish to ship.
