Common application scenarios of containers

As a modular and standardized transportation unit, containers have a wide and diverse range of application scenarios. The following is a detailed summary of their main application areas:

1、 Logistics and transportation field
Multimodal Transport Core
Shipping: Over 85% of international trade goods worldwide are transported through containers, and large container ships (such as EVA Shipping with a load capacity of 24000 TEUs) drive global trade.
Railway/Highway: Double decker container railway transportation improves the efficiency of European and American land transportation, while highway container trucks provide “door-to-door” services and support trailer transportation.
Aviation: Specialized aviation containers are used for the rapid transportation of high-value goods.
Special cargo transportation
Refrigerator: Transport temperature controlled goods such as food and medicine.
Tank container: Transport liquid chemicals, petroleum, etc.
Open top/side opening: loading large machinery, steel and other oversized goods.
2、 Construction site support
Temporary facilities
Accommodation: Container dormitories solve the problem of workers’ accommodation, equipped with waterproof, fireproof, and soundproof materials to ensure safety.
Warehousing and office: Flexibly transform into a warehouse or office to adapt to the dynamic needs of the construction site.
Innovative Architecture
Modular architecture: By combining containers to construct residential buildings, schools, and medical stations, costs are reduced and environmental protection is achieved.
3、 Storage solutions
Temporary storage
Port, exhibition and other scenarios are used for short-term storage of goods, which are sturdy, durable and movable.
Dangerous goods storage
Specialized containers have leak prevention, fire prevention, and anti-corrosion functions, meeting the requirements of standardized management of hazardous waste.
4、 Humanitarian aid
emergency facilities
Quickly deploy as temporary hospitals and shelters after natural disasters to support rescue operations.
5、 Creative commercial space
Commercial transformation
Container cafes, restaurants, and retail stores have become popular check-in points for internet celebrities, combining creativity and practicality.
Cultural and sports facilities
Temporary exhibition halls, sports event changing rooms, quickly built and reusable.
6、 Technological development and sustainability
Lightweight and Environmental Protection
Using high-strength steel and aluminum alloy to reduce weight and carbon emissions.
Automated loading and unloading
Tray containers and mini containers improve logistics efficiency and reduce unloading time.
summarize
The application of containers has far exceeded the traditional transportation scope, and its standardized and modular characteristics make it a “universal tool” in logistics, construction, emergency, commercial and other fields. Through technological innovation, containers continue to drive global supply chain efficiency improvement while contributing to sustainable development goals.
