These sea freig containers are capable of withstanding the weather and are ideal for most types of dry goods. They come in standard sizes of 20 foot (TEU) and 40 foot (FEU) equivalents which can be stacked onto each other and secured on ships.

Moving perishable goods such as fruits, vegetables, meat and pharmaceuticals is never easy, that is why tamper-proof containers are mandatory, With the use of sea freight refrigerated containers, a consistent temperature is maintained throughout the trip as these containers are capable of sustaining a temperature sensitive environment.
