Could a seafold 40' container slash the cost of repositioning empty containers?

More than a fifth of containers are returned empty to their port of origin empty, according to estimates. CCS claims that the SeaFold 40' box could potentially slash the cost of repositioning empty containers by 56%, save storage space by 80%, and drive down carbon emissions by 70%.

What is a seafold container?

In maritime operations, SeaFold containers deliver substantial cost savings for one-way cargo shipments through more efficient loading and unloading procedures. Their design allows for additional stowage space on mainline and feeder vessels, which in turn reduces the vessel’s time in port.

How does seafold reduce empty container repositioning?

SeaFold containers effectively reduce empty container repositioning, leading to optimized storage at rail and truck terminals. This efficiency translates to fewer trucks and rail cars transporting empty containers, thereby lowering fuel costs. The streamlined process offers a practical solution for both economic and environmental concerns.
