What is a Pallet Wide container?
La famille Pallet Wide regroupe les conteneurs conçus pour mieux exploiter la largeur intérieure avec des palettes Europe. Elle répond aux flux où chaque emplacement palette compte.

Le format conserve une logique de conteneur maritime, avec une structure robuste et des portes arrière. Sa valeur vient surtout de l’optimisation du plancher disponible pour les marchandises palettisées.
Le choix dépend du type de palettes, du volume à charger et de la fréquence des rotations. Il faut vérifier la compatibilité avec le site, les moyens de manutention et la disponibilité du format.

In detail
What is a used 40 ft Pallet Wide High Cube shipping container?
A Pallet Wide container is a shipping container with an increased internal width: 2.44 m, compared to 2.35 m on a classic Dry. "HC" stands for High Cube: the container gains about 30 cm of height over the standard 8'6" format. "Used" refers to a reconditioned unit; a box already in service, overhauled and checked at the depot before being returned to circulation.
Read more
The combination of increased width and HC height fits 24 Euro pallets on the floor, at an accessible cost compared to the first-trip, i.e. new, model. The Corten steel box, a steel that naturally resists marine corrosion, keeps its original long HC structure. Seals, bars and the 28 mm marine plywood floor are inspected, and replaced if degraded.
In the reconditioned 40 ft HC format, the unit preserves 76 m³ usable, a 26,460 kg payload and a 2.69 m internal height. It's a proven solution for large-volume pan-European pallet distribution at an accessible cost.

Use the internal dimensions to plan the load or equipment layout. Allow the clearances needed for movement, handling and maintenance for your intended use.
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.

Read the dimensions guideLe 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
Why does a Pallet Wide container carry more pallets?
The Euro pallet, the continent's standard pallet, measures 800 × 1200 mm. A classic Dry container has an internal width of 2.35 m. This width doesn't leave room to line up pallets in their most compact orientation: space is lost in every row.
The Pallet Wide widens the internal width to 2.44 m, 9 cm more. This gain is enough to fit Euro pallets with no wasted space. On a 40 ft High Cube, it allows 24 pallets on the floor; the 2.69 m HC height additionally allows light stacking, up to 48 pallets on two levels.
Applications
