Key Features

• High cube configuration providing additional interior height of 8 ft 10 in

• Extended 45ft length offering approximately 13% more capacity than standard 40ft containers 

• Corten steel construction for structural integrity and corrosion resistance

• Marine-grade plywood flooring over steel cross-members

• Double cargo doors with steel locking bars

• Forklift pockets for ease of handling and positioning

• Corner castings for lifting and stacking compatibility

Detailed Description

The 45ft high cube container is constructed from Corten steel, a weathering steel grade that forms a stable protective layer when exposed to atmospheric conditions. This material provides structural integrity and resistance to corrosion, making the container suitable for extended outdoor placement and maritime transport.

The high cube configuration provides approximately 8 ft 10 in of interior height, offering additional vertical space compared to standard containers. This increased height accommodates tall items, supports racking systems, and improves air circulation for stored materials. The 45ft length provides an interior volume of approximately 86 cubic meters (3,040 cubic feet) .

The floor system utilizes marine-grade plywood panels secured to steel cross-members, providing load-bearing capacity for palletized goods and machinery. The double cargo doors feature steel locking bars with a secure locking mechanism compatible with padlocks or security seals.

As a new unit, this container has not been used for prior cargo transport. Minor cosmetic marks may be present as a result of manufacturing, handling, transportation, or storage.
