Applications
Applications for 20ft Dry Van Steel Floor Container
The strongest use cases for this specification, based on its configuration and published selection criteria.
Best fit
Heavy rolling loads
The steel checker-plate floor is designed for durable handling of wheeled equipment and rolling cargo, subject to rated floor and axle loads.
Selection criterion
Moisture-resistant flooring
Unlike a timber or bamboo-composite floor, the steel surface does not absorb moisture; coating condition, drainage, and corrosion control remain important.
Selection criterion
Non-absorbent floor surface
The steel checker-plate surface is non-absorbent, making it better suited to damp equipment and packaged liquids than a timber-based floor.
Selection criterion
High wear resistance
The steel checker-plate floor provides a hard-wearing surface for intensive loading and repeated operational use.
Selection criterion
Reduced-combustible floor surface
The steel floor removes timber or bamboo floor material from the loading surface where reduced combustible content is a selection priority.
Selection criterion
Cargo restraint
Standard floor-level lashing rings provide restraint points for securing general cargo during transport; use certified equipment and remain within the marked lashing capacity.
Application
Self-storage
Containers used as rentable units in self-storage operations.
Selection criterion
Frequent relocation
ISO freight construction, corner castings, and the Corten-steel shell are designed for repeated lifting, transport, and redeployment. On white variants, the PU coating adds paint durability that helps the container remain presentable.
Application
Site storage
Secure temporary or permanent storage at an operating site.
Application
General cargo
Transport and storage of general dry cargo.
Application
Palletised cargo
Transport and storage of palletised goods and unitised freight.
Selection criterion
Heavy point loads
Steel flooring is a stronger starting point for concentrated machinery loads, but point loads still require confirmation against the floor rating and may need load-spreading plates.
Application
International shipping
Cross-border and intercontinental transport using ISO freight containers.
Application
Temporary warehousing
Flexible short- or medium-term warehousing without constructing a permanent building.
Application
Inventory overflow
Additional capacity for seasonal stock, production peaks, and warehouse overflow.
Selection criterion
Easy spill cleanup
The non-absorbent steel surface can be wiped or washed after minor leaks and spills, subject to safe containment and disposal procedures.
