The effect of foldable containers on the costs of container fleet management in liner shipping networks. Maritime Economics & Logistics. 2012. Vol. 14. No. 4. P. 455-479. DOI: 10.1057/mel.2012.16. Shintani, K. & Konings, R. & Imai, A. Combinable containers: A container innovation to save container fleet and empty container repositioning costs.
Furthermore the use of foldable containers can have significant impact on the cost of shipping. Shipping companies can save the additional costs of handling and carrying empty containers when they call at a port and the additional capacity in the ship can be used for extra cargo.
Using primary and secondary data sources the pros and cons of using foldable containers as compared to standard containers are identified, and it is shown that a port can gain cost efficiencies by using foldable containers.
The industry perceives that foldable containers can generate numerous benefits such as reductions in capacity constraints at loading centres and storage, reduction in port infrastructure expansion costs and large benefits to the shipping industry by way of providing a direct solution to the problem of repositioning empty containers.
Our standardized container products are engineered for reliability, safety, and easy deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
It is motivated by an actual study of feasibility the use of foldable containers by an Asia-based container shipping line. II. LITERATURE REVIEW This review briefly introduces selected …
