ISO Containers

Scroll down

To transport goods, especially in the case of intermodal transport, containers are used, among which the most common is the ISO model

(acronym for International Organization for Standardization). It is a container whose measurements have been established and defined at the international level. In fact, to ensure the possibility of transporting a container on a truck, train, or ship, the dimensions must fall within precise tolerance ranges specified by the law.

In the table below, you can verify all the information regarding the dimensions of different types of ISO containers (Dry Freight, Open Top, Flatrack & Platform, Refrigerated). We at C.T.I. are available to guide you in choosing the best ISO container solution for shipping any type of cargo.
