40' Flat Rack Container
High-capacity platform for massive industrial and maritime project cargo.
Overview of the 40' Flat Rack Container
The 40-foot Flat Rack (40FR) is the premier choice for transporting significantly oversized and
exceptionally heavy project cargo. Designed without side walls and a roof, it utilizes a
reinforced steel base and two high-strength end walls to support enormous loads. This unit is
essential for shipping large yachts, heavy industrial turbines, multi-ton construction vehicles,
or oversized bridge components that exceed the dimensions of standard container frames.
Structurally, the 40FR provides approximately 12 meters of reinforced platform space. Its design
allows for cargo to overlap the edges (over-width) and extend beyond the height of the end walls
(over-height). Multiple heavy-duty lashing points are integrated into the floor, allowing
professional logistics teams to secure cargo with steel chains, cables, and straps. The 40' flat
rack is a critical asset for project forwarders, providing the specialized load-bearing capacity
required for the world's most challenging maritime logistics tasks.
