The foldable shipping container that will revolutionize the shipping industry, saving costs, space and the planet
BACKGROUND
As global trade expands, it brings with it a growing set of challenges. One notable problem arises from trade imbalances, where empty shipping containers often find themselves in the wrong locations, requiring repositioning. In fact, a staggering 40% of all container shipments are dispatched empty. This inefficiency results in several pressing issues, including
Financial Strain
The annual costs associated with transporting empty containers reach over $20 billion.
Environmental Impact
The unnecessary movement of empty containers contributes to environmental pollution, particularly in terms of greenhouse gas emissions.
Space Use
Empty containers have large foot prints, requiring significant space and storage cost while holding only air
Space Efficiency
The ability to fold and bundle containers with ease means that storage and transportation space is used efficiently.
Operational Costs
Reduced storage requirements and improved space utilization lower operational costs.
Environmental Benefits
The decreased need for empty container movements result in decreased fuel consumption and less wear and tear on transportation equipment.
Operational Efficiency
The collapsible design streamlines the handling and transportation process, making it quicker and more efficient.
Return Logistics
Collapsible containers simplify the process of returning empty containers.
A foldable shipping container saves up to 75% of the cost associated with empty containers. The savings come from:
Over the years multiple attempts have been made to create a foldable container, but none have actually worked. The main reasons for this is the cost of folding. Previously foldable containers either required several workers, special tools, expensive machinery, dedicated location or any combination thereof. This creates additional logistical steps, severely limiting the widespread use of such containers.
But SKLADX container is different.
It's patented design can be folded anywhere using only 1 worker, a forklift and just 10 minutes.
By bypassing the need to transport empty containers to a dedicated folding facility and instead folding and bundling them on-site, we achieve significant cost savings. The cost savings persist throughout the entire return journey to the source, where the containers will be unbundled, unfolded, and replenished with goods. The savings are actually more profound during inland operation. Since SKLADX containers are fully compatible with all existing infrastructure, whether folded, unfolded, or bundled, there is no need for additional capital investment to accommodate them.
