Integrated Metal and Flexible Packaging Systems
Our intermodal containers and third-party flexible packages are designed for easy handling and supported by a strong track record across demanding applications. Their user-friendly designs let you load close to the project site—improving efficiency and safety while reducing onsite handling.
With larger capacities and reusable construction, these systems can also lower total cost compared with disposable metal containers and one-way truck transport.
Every container and flexible package is fully tested and certified by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the American Bureau of Shipping for rail, truck, and marine transport—supporting both domestic and international shipments.
