40ft Open Top Shipping Container (Army Green)
The 40ft Open Top Shipping Container in Army Green is designed specifically for high-capacity, heavy-duty cargo that cannot be easily loaded through standard double rear doors. Featuring an open-roof architecture with a removable heavy-duty tarpaulin cover, this container allows for direct top-loading via crane, overhead hoist, or crab crane—making it the preferred choice for industrial machinery, raw timber, structural steel, scrap metal, and bulky equipment.
Finished in a rugged, matte Army Green protective coating (RAL 6007 / RAL 6031 military tone), this container offers superior corrosion defense against extreme weather and saltwater exposure. Built from high-tensile Corten steel (corrosion-resistant alloy), it includes a swing-out top door header that rotates out of the way for seamless crane entry. Secured with heavy-duty steel roof bows, a high-density PVC tarpaulin cover, and TIR-approved sealing cables, your cargo stays completely weather-tight during ocean transit, rail transport, or secure site storage.
