About the ownership of global containers
Only about half of the containers are owned by shipping companies, and the rest are operated on leases, with lease terms ranging from one to 10 years.
The types of goods loaded in ISO cans must be consistent
If ISO tanks are used to load food, they can no longer load other types of goods. The same is true for IOS tanks that have been loaded with chemicals. This is to avoid cargo contamination.
The goods loaded in ISO cans have clear reference
For an ISO tank that has been loaded with chemicals, the type of chemicals that can be transported next depends on the types of chemicals transported in the previous three times.
Refrigerated containers intelligently maintain cargo temperature. Refrigerated containers (freezers) do not produce cold air. Normally, they can only maintain the temperature of the cargo, but cannot help the cargo return to its original temperature.
Most products in the world are produced in China
This is because labor costs are lower. Another is the principle of proximity. About 97% of containers are manufactured in China.
Generally, the service life of a 40-foot container is longer than that of a 20-foot container.
If well maintained, the lifespan of a container is approximately 30 years, or even more! Generally, the service life of a 40-foot container will be longer than that of a 20-foot container. This is because the cargo they contain usually does not meet the weight limit of the 20-foot container.
