About the 20′ Flatrack container
20′ Flatrack is an open reinforced platform with end frames, designed for heavy machinery, project cargo and for oversized cargo. Because the container has no conventional side walls or roof, cargo may extend beyond the standard dimensions, but such shipments require individual stowage, securing and carrier approval. The stated maximum payload is achievable only when the weight is distributed correctly across the load-bearing structures.
