40FT Platform Container — 40 Ton Payload

Open Design. Maximum Payload. Industrial Strength.

The 40FT Platform Container is a flat, heavy-duty transport unit engineered for oversized, irregular, or ultra-heavy cargo that exceeds the dimensional constraints of conventional containers. With a flush high-tensile steel deck, low loading profile, and payload capacity of over 40,500 kg, this platform is ideal for static use, transcontinental transport, or industrial staging.

Its CORTEN steel structure and built-in twistlocks ensure secure anchoring of machinery, vehicles, and other specialized cargo during sea, rail, or flatbed movement. Certified under CSC for international shipment, it is fully compatible with standard handling systems and optimized for stacking.

Technical Specifications

Structural Features & Engineering Advantages

• Flush Steel Deck: Fabricated with high-tensile steel for consistent load distribution and resistance to warping under high-concentration weight.

• Integrated Twistlocks: Allows direct lashing of irregular cargo such as cranes, turbines, or skid-mounted units without needing additional fastening structures.

• Open Design: Absence of side and roof panels allows for loading and unloading from multiple angles—ideal for over-width and over-height cargo.

• Low Deck Height: Just 480 mm high, this platform reduces lift distances, improving crane and forklift compatibility.

• Multimodal Readiness: Fully compatible with ships, rail cars, yard handlers, and flatbed trailers across international and domestic routes.

• Stackable Format: Can be stacked in yards or high-bay storage zones when not in use.

• Customization Available: Standard RAL5013 finish; custom RAL color coatings available by request.

Ideal Applications

Heavy Equipment Transport
Carries large vehicles, excavators, mining gear, and other mobile machinery securely.

Project Cargo & Logistics
Used for transporting bulky infrastructure items such as turbines, engines, cable drums, and large steel fabrications.

Oversized & Industrial Freight
Supports abnormal load profiles like long beams, generator skids, transformer housings, and oilfield components.

Static Storage or Yard-Based Ops
Provides a secure, elevated base for outdoor staging of mobile units, tool kits, or temporary machinery.

Compliance & Handling Notes

• Fully ISO & CSC certified for global freight forwarding

• Designed for use with standard twistlock chassis, flatbeds, and lifters

• All units are inspected for deck integrity, twistlock tension, and corner post alignment before dispatch

• Load plans and technical drawings available upon request for transport engineering coordination
