Different shipping container categories
At YMC, we supply a wide range of specialised shipping containers, crafted to your specific requirements. Choosing the right shipping containers for your business is important so we’ve written this to ensure that you have the ability to choose the right container for you.
Offshore Container
An offshore shipping container is the most customised container that’s available. When you have specialised or expensive equipment that you must ensure has the highest level of security during transport that’s available, offshore containers are the best option.
Offshore companies often require extremely expensive equipment that’s generally specialised. This means that they’re going to need to make sure that it’s safe, secure and transferred swiftly. These 3 needs mean that general shipping containers, such as the multi-use container, are not the correct option. In this scenario, the construction of an offshore container – bespoke to whatever the business is transferring – is the option that is regularly taken.
Here at YMC, we work in partnership with you, our customers, to build offshore containers. This is because it requires us to know accurate details to make sure that our containers fit what you’re transferring accurately. We coordinate with you to ensure that the end result is always what you’re expecting.
Multi-use Containers
Our general shipping containers (multi-use containers) product range includes all of the specialised ISO container solutions that can be used in a range of situations and industries. Examples of these industries that the containers can be used in include military, waste management and shipping. Despite the all-encompassing name, our multi-use shipping containers are still tailored and then constructed to your requirements. We don’t cut any corners; your container is exclusive to you in terms of specifications.
In cooperation with you, we design and manufacture our containers suited to your individual needs as well as the industry standards set out by those who govern the industry that you conduct your work in. In fact, we’ve constructed tens of thousands of shipping containers through the years. In previous years, we’ve worked in partnership with many businesses to create innovative container solutions, some of which have gone on to become regularly used in the industries we were catering to.
Nuclear Freight Containers
Somebody has to handle dangerous materials and we’ve worked with a lot of industry leaders who do. Standard shipping containers can’t handle dangerous materials, such as nuclear waste, so we have a range of nuclear shipping containers designed to handle that material. With our innovative containers, we’ve paved the way for easier handling of waste in the future.
When we create our nuclear freight containers, we also design and construct them to the needs of our clients. As we’ve learnt in the past 20 plus years, there’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ when it comes to shipping containers. All ‘NucCon’ shipping containers meet the needs of our customers within the nuclear industry.
Each and every container that we construct faces many assessments and trials to ensure that it is safe and offering protection to those who work with them. All containers that we design, and manufacture are developed following strict guidelines in addition to being created under the ISO 9001 quality management system. We also have independent checks (people and businesses not connected to us) to ensure that our containers meet all expectations and needs. You really can be assured that you’re ordering a quality product.
