What Is an Open Top Container?
An open top container replaces the fixed steel roof with removable bows and a weatherproof tarpaulin. As a result, crane operators can lower cargo directly into the container from above. Moreover, the removable door header allows front loading of tall or wide items that standard container doors cannot accommodate. Therefore, this unit is the preferred choice for machinery, structural steel, and out-of-gauge cargo.
In addition, lashing rings secure the load during road and sea transport. Furthermore, the tarpaulin and bows must travel with the container during shipping to maintain structural integrity. If cargo exceeds container height, a flat rack container is the appropriate alternative.
