The SeaFold HC 40 by Compact Container Systems could solve longstanding supply chain challenges for ports worldwide.

Efficient Shipping with Container Innovation

Over 20 percent of ISO containers return empty, causing logistics issues and unnecessary costs. Compact Container Systems (CCS) aims to reduce container repositioning costs by 56%, save 80% of storage space, and decrease carbon emissions by up to 70%. The SeaFold HC 40 container addresses these concerns directly, minimizing unnecessary movements and improving storage flexibility.

Rail Baltica: A Vital Project for Military and Civil Infrastructure

Charlie Santos-Buch, CEO of CCS, noted the container’s potential impact on optimizing storage and reducing emissions. “Our design offers a cost-saving, space-efficient solution, especially valuable during peak congestion times,” he stated. The ability to fit five folded containers in a single slot maximizes resources, driving better organization at terminals and depots.

Container Innovation: A Sustainable Solution for Ports

This container innovation was developed through advanced research and engineering to meet all ISO standards. SeaFold HC 40 also passed water ingress testing and is compatible with standard lifting equipment, making it ideal for efficient operations without the need for special machinery. With high-grade materials and durability, this product is intended to bring sustainability and efficiency to the logistics industry.

CCS hopes the SeaFold HC 40’s design will encourage ports to adopt more sustainable practices, reduce costs, and improve operational effectiveness. This innovative approach may set a new standard, driving future advancements in container technology and logistics solutions globally.
