In detail
What is a new 20ft IP2 shipping container?
The 20ft IP2 container is a shipping container certified for the transport of low-level radioactive materials. "IP2" stands for Industrial Package Type 2, a category defined by the IAEA, the International Atomic Energy Agency, safety standard. The "first-trip" designation refers to a new unit, which has made only a single positioning journey before being put up for sale.
The box is made of decontaminable reinforced steel: its surface can be chemically cleaned between uses. The floor, in steel or resin, resists decontamination solutions. The unit offers 31.8 m³ of usable interior volume for 32,000 kg of payload. It is designed to pass the drop and water-spray tests required by the standard.
In detail
Understanding the IP2 classification
The IAEA SSR-6 standard classifies radioactive packages according to the hazard level of the material transported. Industrial packages IP1, IP2, and IP3 are reserved for low-activity materials, known as LSA, for Low Specific Activity, and for objects with only surface contamination, known as SCO. The IP2 level requires two tests: a 1.2-meter free fall onto a hard surface, and a water-spray test. These tests verify that the container withstands rough transport handling without releasing its contents.
The 20ft IP2 container provides this compliance in a multimodal ISO format: it moves by sea, rail, or road with no transshipment. Its decontaminable steel structure allows residual contamination to be cleaned between trips, in line with French nuclear-site protocols.
Applications
Uses of a new 20ft IP2 shipping container
The 20ft IP2 serves logistics flows in the nuclear sector, from low-activity waste to contaminated equipment.
The applications below show in which contexts this format is most relevant. Each use case connects the on-site need to the container's concrete benefit.
Highlights
Why buy a new 20ft IP2 shipping container
The new 20ft IP2 is a regulated container, approved for transporting low-level radioactive materials. The strengths below explain what the certification and decontaminable design bring to this specialized, tightly controlled use.
The strengths below explain what each technical choice brings to the project. They help compare the product with a less specialized alternative or a different condition.
-
IP2 certification per the IAEA SSR-6 standard
The container is approved for transporting low-level radioactive materials, in accordance with International Atomic Energy Agency regulations.
-
Decontaminable reinforced steel
The reinforced steel lends itself to chemical cleaning. Any residual contamination is removed between uses, securing rotations.
-
Steel or resin floor
The floor is impervious to decontamination solutions. It withstands cleaning protocols without absorbing or retaining contaminants.
-
32,000 kg payload
Load capacity exceeds that of a standard dry container, despite the box's reinforced structure.
-
Validated drop and spray tests
The container's strength is verified under rough transport conditions. This validation is what underpins the IP2 approval.
-
ISO 6346 and CSC compliance
The unit moves through secure multimodal transport, by sea, rail, and road, with no adaptation.
