Ⅰ. Product Definition and Core Classification
A container is a standardized transportation unit made of steel box body , which has both transportation and space renovation functions. It can be divided into:
1. Standard freight container : Following ISO 668 standard, common
sizes:
-20GP (6.06m × 2.44m × 2.59m, with a load capacity of 28 tons)
-40GP (12.19m × 2.44m × 2.59m, with a load capacity of 26 tons)
-40HC (high box, height 2.89m)
-45HC (extra long high box, suitable for large item transportation)
2. Special Container :
-Open Top, Side Door, Reefer, Tank Container, etc;
3. Container houses/buildings : converted or customized from
standard containers, used for residential, office, commercial and
other scenarios.
Ⅱ. Core Advantages and Performance Characteristics
Standardization and Universality :Global unified size specifications, seamlessly connected by sea,
rail, and road, compatible with various loading and unloading
equipment (such as gantry cranes and forklifts).
Strength and Durability: The main body is made of Corten steel, which has a corrosion
resistance 4-8 times that of ordinary steel and a design life of
over 25 years; Structural load-bearing capacity: The top can withstand a pressure of 20 tons, and the side can
withstand wind pressure ≥ 1.2kPa.
Flexible Remodeling :The box can be cut, welded, and perforated, supporting water and
electricity renovation and insulation treatment. The conversion
from the box to the functional space can be completed within 7-15
days.
Cost and Efficiency :The cost of renovating second-hand boxes is only one-third of
that of traditional buildings, and the cost of building custom
boxes is 30% lower; Modular transportation and installation: a project consisting of 10 20 foot boxes can be delivered within
one month.
Environmental attributes:The renovation of second-hand boxes reduces steel consumption,
with a 100% material recovery rate and a 90% reduction in
construction pollution compared to traditional buildings, in line
with the concept of green building.
III. Typical Application Scenarios
1. Logistics and transportation field
-International freight: accounting for 90% of the global sea
freight turnover, suitable for general cargo such as electronic
products, clothing, machinery, etc. The refrigerated container can
transport temperature controlled goods such as fresh produce and
medicine;
-Warehouse Transfer: Temporary warehouse, port container yard, can
stack 5-7 layers, increasing space utilization by 5 times.
2. Architecture and Space Renovation
-Residential Scene:
-Homestay/hotel: such as Sanya Seaside Container Homestay, which
uses stacked boxes to form a staggered shape, with a single box
renovation cost of 50000 to 80000 yuan;
-Affordable housing: Post disaster reconstruction of temporary
residences, each box can accommodate 4-6 people, equipped with
bathroom and kitchen modules. -Business and Office :
-Mobile office: construction site project department, field
exploration station, can integrate air conditioning, network and
office furniture.
-Industrial and Special Scenarios:
-Data centers: such as Microsoft's "Natick Project" and underwater
container data centers, with a 40% increase in heat dissipation
efficiency;
-Energy storage power station: containerized energy storage system,
integrated with battery pack and temperature control equipment,
supporting rapid deployment.
3. Special function applications
-Medical field : Mobile nucleic acid testing laboratory, vaccine
cold storage (-20 ℃ constant temperature);
-Agricultural field : Container planting compartments (hydroponic
vegetables, annual output of 3-5 tons per container), livestock
breeding compartments (enclosed chicken/beekeeping).
Ⅳ. Selection and Customization Guide
1. Procurement Type Selection :
-New container: suitable for high standard scenarios such as
refrigeration and dangerous goods transportation, priced at 25000
to 40000 yuan/20GP;
-Second hand box : Suitable for renovation purposes, the box body
needs to be inspected for rust (rust hole ≤ 5cm ²) and water
leakage (water spray test), priced at 10000-20000 yuan/20GP.
2. Customization process :
-Requirement communication: Confirm size, function (such as whether
insulation, water and electricity are required), and appearance
requirements;
-Scheme design: 3D rendering+structural calculation sheet (if the
stacking scheme requires verification of load-bearing capacity);
-Production cycle: Standard renovation takes 10-15 days per box,
while complex customization (such as refrigerated containers) takes
20-30 days.
3. Transportation and Installation :
-Transportation: 20GP can be transported by regular trucks, while
40HC requires an over limit transportation permit;
-Foundation: Simple projects can be directly placed on the concrete
cushion layer, while permanent buildings require strip foundations
or pile foundations.
Conclusion
Containers have evolved from a single mode of transportation to a multifunctional spatial carrier, and their standardization, flexibility, and economy are reshaping multiple industries such as construction, logistics, and energy. Whether it is emergency relief, business innovation, or sustainable development projects, container products can meet demand with cost-effective solutions and become an important driving force for modern industrial upgrading.
