Half height containers are exactly what the name suggests, roughly half the height of a standard box, and purpose-built for dense, heavy cargo. When you are shipping ore, coal, aggregates, scrap or machinery parts, weight limits are reached long before you run out of space. A full-height container would sit half empty; a half height puts the payload where you can actually load and unload it. The low profile makes top loading with excavators, grabs and conveyors straightforward, and keeps the centre of gravity low for safe handling and stacking. We supply them to mining, quarrying, construction and scrap metal operations.
