In detail
What is a new 20ft Platform shipping container?
A Platform is a bare maritime chassis: a steel deck a few decimeters high, with no roof, no side walls, and no high end walls. The "first-trip" designation means it is a new unit, straight from the factory after a single positioning journey. The 20ft format is the range's intermediate size.
This configuration provides clear access on all four sides and allows transport of parts that exceed even the ends of a Flat Rack. The new structure is built on a Corten steel box, a self-weathering steel that naturally resists marine corrosion, fully welded, with a reinforced steel or wood floor sized for concentrated loads.
In the 20ft format, the unit offers 13.86 m² of floor area for 28,280 kg of payload. It serves the transport of long, flat out-of-gauge parts, industrial equipment that needs no side protection, or road-chassis journeys where added end-wall height would hinder circulation.
In detail
Platform or Flat Rack: what's the difference?
Both families are decks for out-of-gauge loads, with no roof or side walls. The difference lies in the ends. The Flat Rack keeps two fixed high end walls, front and rear. The Platform removes those too: all that remains is a bare steel deck.
With no end walls, access is clear on all four sides. A part can overhang the deck in every direction; something a Flat Rack does not allow, since its high end walls get in the way. The Platform therefore goes further in openness, at the cost of the rigidity the end walls provided. It is the ultimate option for long, flat loads that exceed even a Flat Rack's gauge.
Applications
Uses of a new 20ft Platform shipping container
The total absence of walls and end walls makes the Platform the ultimate option for out-of-gauge parts that require completely clear access. Four industrial uses illustrate this:
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 Platform shipping container
The new 20ft Platform is the most open loading base in the out-of-gauge segment. The strengths below explain what the total absence of walls changes compared with a Flat Rack and why this deck accommodates the most atypical loads.
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.
-
No obstacle to loading
No roof, no walls, no end walls; access is completely clear on all four sides of the deck. The load can enter from any direction.
-
More open than the Flat Rack
Removing the end walls opens up transport for parts that would still exceed a Flat Rack's gauge. Nothing limits the load's length.
-
High payload
28,280 kg allowable, a capacity higher than a standard 20ft Dry container. The deck is sized for heavy, concentrated loads.
-
Reinforced steel or wood floor
A flat, resistant surface, able to handle heavy parts set down at a single point.
-
Fully welded Corten box
The self-weathering steel structure guarantees maritime-grade robustness, compliant with international ISO standards.
-
Reduced exterior height
The deck alone, with no superstructure, adds no height. Road-chassis transport remains possible with no added gauge constraint.

What is the price of a new 20ft Platform shipping container
The new 20ft Platform belongs to an ultra-specialized segment of maritime trade. Its price reflects production cycles for bare decks and very limited availability within the OOG segment.
