We understand that not all cargo fits inside a standard container.Heavy-weight, oversized and other special cargo can be particularly tricky and challenging for international transportation.
Special cargoes which are transported by using Flat Rack or Open Top containers, and are placed within the internal dimensions of the containers.
If the height, width or length of your cargo extends beyond the capacity of a standard container , this type of cargo needs to be loaded and secured onto Platform, single Flat Rack or Open Top quipment.
For extra-large cargo at the time of vessel on-boarding, the cargo will be stowed on a pre-prepared bed containing multiple Flat Racks, thus ensuring maximum lashing opportunities.
We offer a wide variety of dedicated equipment to different requirement of out-of-gauge cargoes at safe and secure condition: Flat Rack, Platform, Open Top, Hard Top, Open Side, Flexi-tank, etc.

Open Top containers have an open top covered by a tarpaulin instead of a solid roof. This enables oversized cargo to be loaded from the top. Open top containers normally also have end doors, like closed containers, to give flexibility for loading and unloading.
