Product Description
The 20ft Open Top Shipping Container is engineered for oversized and irregular cargo that cannot be loaded through standard container doors. Built as a hard open top dry cargo unit, it features a removable steel roof and reinforced internal structure, allowing loading from the top via crane or other lifting systems.
Constructed from CORTEN anti-corrosive steel, it ensures resilience against environmental exposure, abrasion, and heavy handling. Its CSC and ISO compliance makes it suitable for global intermodal transport by sea, rail, or road.
With a 33.2 cubic meter capacity, the 20ft open top container balances compact external dimensions with robust load-bearing capacity, making it the industry standard for heavy-duty shipping of oversized equipment, machinery, and bulk materials.
