Product Details
1. Product Overview: The "Ultimate Capacity Expander" for Extra‑Long Heavy Pallet Transport
The 48ft pallet container is a customised special container purpose‑built for extra‑long, extra‑wide, and heavy‑duty palletised cargo. Breaking through the length limitations of standard containers, it features a 14,630mm extra‑long box + 27,830kg extra‑large payload + 2,500mm extra‑wide and high‑cube design. A single container can accommodate significantly more pallets, making it the "golden equipment" for warehousing logistics, industrial exports, and heavy pallet transport.
Core Advantages:
-
Extra‑long, extra‑wide and high‑cube space – accommodates 4–6 additional standard pallets compared to a standard 40ft container, greatly improving loading efficiency.
-
Superior load capacity – maximum gross weight 34,000kg, maximum payload 27,830kg – easily handles heavy palletised cargo.
-
Universal compatibility – adaptable to standard spreaders and trailers as required, compatible with sea, road and rail intermodal transport to meet customised shipping needs.
2. Product Features & Applications: Extra‑Long and Extra‑Wide – Maximised Pallet Transport Efficiency
✨ Key Features
-
Extra‑long, extra‑wide and high‑cube space – pallet capacity doubled – external length of 14,630mm and width of 2,500mm allow multiple rows of pallets to be loaded side‑by‑side, accommodating 4–6 more pallets than a standard 40ft container; the 3,000mm super‑high design easily accepts over‑height palletised goods without height restrictions.
-
Extra‑large payload – directly lowers transport costs – maximum payload 27,830kg allows more heavy palletised cargo per container, significantly reducing per‑unit shipping costs.
-
Robust and durable – full safety protection – high‑strength corrugated steel body + fully welded structure; allowable stacking weight of 45,900kg ensures multi‑layer stacking without deformation; excellent water, dust and corrosion resistance.
-
Customisable adaptability – full scenario coverage – optional internal rails, lashing points, anti‑slip flooring can be added to suit special cargo such as glass, sheets, and profiles.
🛠️ Typical Applications
-
Export transport of palletised goods – food products, chemical raw materials, daily necessities; the extra‑long and extra‑wide space enables side‑by‑side pallet loading, with per‑container capacity far exceeding standard boxes.
-
Extra‑long / extra‑wide equipment transport – industrial equipment, machine tools, large structural components; the oversized box accommodates them directly without disassembly.
-
Heavy bulk pallet transport – high‑density ores, building materials, chemical raw materials; palletised loading + ultra‑high payload dramatically improves transport efficiency.
-
Special sheet / profile transport – glass, aluminium sheets, timber; internal rails and securing devices can be fitted for safe, damage‑free delivery.
-
Warehousing logistics turnover – e‑commerce warehouses, factory raw‑material stores; serves as a mobile pallet warehouse with extra space for more pallets.

4. Production Equipment, Quality Certifications & Customer Cases
🏭 Production Equipment & Processes
We use an industry‑leading automated production line for special containers. Addressing the strength and deformation‑control requirements of extra‑long, extra‑wide and high‑cube boxes, we employ thickened high‑strength steel plates and dedicated reinforcement structures. Key welds undergo 100% ultrasonic flaw detection, and each unit is factory‑tested with rigorous stacking tests, lifting tests and watertightness tests, ensuring stable performance under heavy‑duty operating conditions.
📜 Authoritative Quality Certifications
The product is ISO 9001 certified. Upon request, we can provide China Classification Society (CCS) approval and CSC (International Convention for Safe Containers) certificates, meeting customised shipping export standards for direct use in international logistics.
