What is a collapsible shipping container?

Shippers are demanding improved efficiencies and sustainability throughout their supply chains. COLLAPSECON is the collapsible shipping container pioneering the future of global trade. It’s practical and rigid design saves on space, cost and handling, and helps to significantly reduce industry emissions.

How many containers can a collapsecon hold?

COLLAPSECON’s innovative and fully automated design allows up to 4 containers to be collapsed and combined, giving them a fully laden weight and enabling them to be transported anywhere on a ship. 1/6 COLLAPSECON collapses horizontally, ensuring the container maintains its structural rigidity in any form.

Should a container be collapsible vertically?

Collapsing vertically has its benefits, but strength is not one of them. Given the requirement to position containers anywhere on a vessel, the industry must be confident that a collapsible container can sustain the weight of fully laden boxes both at sea and in the port.

How long does it take a container to collapse?

Many collapsible containers require 3-4 people and a crane to operate, often taking 15-20 minutes per unit to collapse, usually by lifting or pushing the container. This causes increased wear and tear, slows operations and increases safety risks. By comparison, COLLAPSECON has true stand-back functionality.
