FAQ
What is the lifespan of a container?
With minimal maintenance, a Corten steel container has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years. First-trip units offer the best longevity.
Can a container be customized?
Yes: RAL paint, additional doors, windows, insulation and electrification. Contact us for a custom quote.
Do you offer rental?
Yes, we offer short-term and long-term rental solutions. Contact our team for terms and conditions.
What payment methods do you accept?
Bank transfer, credit card and other payment methods confirmed on the quote. PayPal and interest-free payment in 3 installments are not offered.

Definition
What is a insulated container?
La famille isotherme regroupe les conteneurs isolés sans groupe froid actif. Elle sert à conserver une température plus stable sans produire de froid.
Read more
L’isolation en polyuréthane, un isolant rigide à faible conductivité thermique, ralentit les échanges avec l’extérieur. Le conteneur protège donc contre les variations rapides, mais ne remplace pas un Reefer quand une température précise doit être maintenue.
Le choix dépend de la durée, de la température de départ des marchandises et de l’exposition du site. L’Isotherme convient aux usages tempérés, au hors gel et aux transports courts.

Le conteneur ne produit pas de froid. Il convient donc aux durées courtes ou aux usages où une dérive contrôlée reste acceptable.
In detail
What is a 40ft used insulated container?
An insulated container is a fully insulated body: its walls slow heat exchange between the goods and the outside. It does not produce cold; it preserves it. "Used" means the unit has already been in service, then reconditioned: inspected and refurbished at the depot. The 40ft format is the large-volume option in the insulated range.
Read more
The body combines stainless steel and aluminum. The insulation, made of polyurethane foam, an insulating foam molded between two walls, is checked by a thermal test at the depot before delivery. The aluminum-rail floor drains liquids and offers a flat surface after cleaning.
The used 40ft format offers 61.3 m³ of usable volume for a 26,680 kg allowable load, over 27.1 m² of floor space. Its standard exterior height of 2.591 m makes it compatible with the European road fleet and maritime terminals, with no modification. Its cost remains lower than that of a new unit.

Mass and load distribution
Check total mass, point loads, load distribution and handling equipment compatibility. Available volume does not determine permissible load: reference masses are listed in the technical specifications.

Dimensions in millimetres · perspective viewLe choix de l’état
Premier voyage ou occasion ?
L’aspect attendu, l’usage et le budget orientent le choix. Demandez les photos et les caractéristiques du conteneur proposé avant de vous décider.
Premier voyage : quel état ?
Un conteneur premier voyage est une unité récemment fabriquée qui a effectué un trajet maritime de positionnement. Son aspect est généralement proche du neuf, mais de petites marques de transport ou de manutention restent possibles.
C’est une option à privilégier pour une installation visible, un aménagement soigné ou un projet où l’état initial compte particulièrement. Demandez les photos et les caractéristiques du conteneur proposé.
Occasion : pour quels usages ?
Un conteneur d’occasion a déjà servi au transport maritime. Les bosses, les reprises de peinture, la corrosion et les réparations varient d’une unité à l’autre : l’appellation seule ne décrit pas son état réel.
Pour le stockage, le chantier ou un usage technique, une occasion contrôlée peut répondre au besoin avec un budget initial plus contenu. Distinguez les traces d’usage acceptables des défauts qui affectent la structure, la fermeture des portes ou l’étanchéité.
Que vérifier avant l’achat ?
- Structure : déformations importantes, trous, corrosion perforante, état du châssis et des coins ISO.
- Portes et joints : ouverture, fermeture, fonctionnement des barres de verrouillage et continuité des joints.
- Plancher et étanchéité : zones molles, réparations inadaptées et entrées de lumière anormales, hors ventilation prévue.
Pour un transport maritime international, faites aussi confirmer la validité CSC et l’aptitude de l’unité au transport prévu. La plaque ne remplace pas l’examen du conteneur.
Budget : que faut-il comparer ?
À format comparable, l’occasion est généralement moins chère à l’achat. Vérifiez aussi ce que le devis inclut : le conteneur, le transport et le déchargement sur votre site.
À format identique, les dimensions nominales restent les mêmes ; la tare et la charge utile se vérifient sur les plaques. Pour un frigorifique, un Open Side ou un conteneur équipé, contrôlez aussi les équipements décisifs pour votre usage : groupe froid, portes ou installations.
In detail
Insulated or Reefer: what is the difference?
The insulated container and the Reefer belong to the same refrigerated family, but rely on two opposite principles. The Reefer, a refrigerated container, carries an active cooling unit: it produces its own cold and maintains a chosen temperature, from −25°C to +25°C. It must stay permanently plugged into a 380V three-phase electrical supply.

The insulated container, on the other hand, produces no cold at all. It simply slows heat exchange through its insulation. It works without electricity and without a cooling unit to maintain. To extend autonomy, eutectic plates are added; cold accumulators frozen in advance in a cold room. On the 40ft format, passive autonomy reaches 48 to 72 hours, which covers multi-customer food flows with no power constraint.
Applications
Uses for a 40ft used insulated container
Reconditioned, this large format targets high-volume logistics at controlled cost.

What is the price of a 40ft used insulated container
The used 40ft insulated container follows a high-volume secondary market. Availability depends on the arrival of converted Reefer bodies put back up for resale.
Four factors influence price variations:
The factors below explain why the price can vary from one quote to another. They help read a quote by distinguishing the price of the product, availability and delivery costs.
