Is your container solution WATERPROOF?
Corrosion is an unseen enemy, silently attacking each and every ISO shipping container, 24hrs a day, 7 days a week, on the open road or sitting on a large ship in the middle of the ocean- they are exposed to chemical and harsh environmental attack.
We are seeing an increase in use of intermodal, and container use on our highways and roads – Containers are now being exposed to greater amounts of chemical attack due to the type and amount of de-icing chemicals in use today. Not only are these chemicals being used when there is poor weather conditions, but road crews are applying de-icing chemicals to prevent ice build-up, resulting in more chemicals being used overall for longer periods of time which translates into more exposure.
Although the construction of ISO containers uses Cor-Ten steel, there is still a requirement for corrosion resistance coatings.
Many fleets understand the problems associated with corrosion and are specifying vehicles to withstand the impact of these chemicals. Exposure to de-icing chemicals; stone and gravel impingement; wide temperature variations, rain and snow all contribute to a destructive environment that requires innovative and advanced-technology coatings for proper rust and corrosion control. Some of these factors are changing the type of coatings required on containers.
Constant bombardment by moisture and debris, as well as exposure to road salts and de-icing materials, harsh ocean environments make specifying Containers for corrosion protection critical to increasing longevity, durability, and reducing costs.
No doubt, if you manufacture or lease, or if you are an owner of a container fleet – this strikes a chord with you. In fact, you are probably continuously seeking better products and processes to help increase the value of your assets. Well, you don't have to any more.
