3. Material & Structural Specifications
Steel Construction: Heavy-gauge Corten A-grade structural weathering steel, engineered substantially thicker and tougher than standard ISO commercial containers to withstand heavy wave impacts and harsh offshore conditions.
Lifting Frame & Pad Eyes: Certified heavy-duty structural steel pad eyes integrated into the top frame corners, designed specifically for multi-leg wire rope sling sets (tested and rated for dynamic offshore lifting).
Floor Construction: Heavy-duty internal steel checker plate or reinforced marine-grade plywood with integrated internal lashing points/tie-down rings for secure cargo restraint.
Surface Protection: High-performance marine-grade multi-coat paint system (abrasion-resistant primer and specialized topcoat) delivering superior salt-spray and corrosion resistance.
4. Safety, Compliance & Certifications
Regulatory Compliance: Fully certified to DNV 2.7-1 / ISO 10855 (superseding EN 12079) standards for Offshore Cargo Carrying Units.
Intermodal Standards: Dual-certified with CSC (Convention for Safe Containers) and ISO framework compatibility for safe transport via road, rail, and deck cargo ship.
Rigging: Delivered with a certified, removable DNV-rated wire rope sling and shackle set (upon request/specification).
5. Access & Security Features
Door Assembly: Heavy-duty double cargo doors featuring robust vertical locking rods, galvanized lock handles, and heavy-duty full-perimeter EPDM rubber weather seals.
Security Protection: Factory-welded heavy-duty lockbox system shielding padlocks against tampering, moisture intrusion, and physical damage.
Forklift Handling: Integrated heavy-duty fork pockets designed for safe yard handling while empty or loaded (as per regulatory limits).
6. Logistics & Deployment
Transport: Readily transportable via standard flatbed trucks, tilt-trays, or container ships.
Site Handling: Optimized for rapid crane or ship-to-rig transfers via certified offshore slings and corner lifting points.
