Ecological issue
Abandoned empty containers
Hundreds of thousands of empty containers abandoned in the Greater Caspian Region create a huge negative impact on the ecology of the region.
Rusting units and problems with utilization leave containers stranded.
These containers are excluded from the world's container flow and replaced by newly produced units.
Unnecessary consumption of resources, such as iron ore, energy and chemicals for paintings, and a negative impact on climate change through CO₂ emissions.
Taking advantage of the Shippers Own Container (SOC) option
Step 1Recover
Containers that would previously have been abandoned are brought back into service.
Step 2Repair
Each unit is repaired and recycled for a safe return to the global container flow.
Step 3Reuse
Repaired SOC units carry regional exports out, instead of sitting idle.

Bulk to Box
From bulk cargo to secure containers
Stuffing bulk cargo in containers for the onward journey, thereby resulting in:
1.
Maximum utilization
Containers that would leave the region empty now carry bulk exports.
2.
Cost reduction
Containerized bulk removes the cost of repositioning empty boxes.
3.
Wider reach
FCL and LCL containers reach markets that bulk shipments cannot.
4.
Shorter transit time
Containers move seamlessly across sea, rail and road legs.
