20'GP FSA
BOXWELL
The 20' Full Side Opening Container is designed with an opening arrangement along the long side of the container, providing much wider lateral cargo access than a conventional dry container that relies primarily on rear doors.
Designated as model 20'GP FSA, this unit provides standard general-purpose height combined with full-side lateral access.
The full side opening makes it easier to handle cargo that is difficult to position through conventional end doors, particularly when wider access is required during loading and unloading.
This model is distinct from the 20'HC Full Side Opening Container.
Built to a standard height of 8'6" / 2.6 m, it provides a standard-height 20-foot configuration rather than a high-cube profile.
This makes the container ideal for operations requiring the compact footprint of a standard 20-foot unit along with enhanced side-loading capabilities.
Standard parameters include:
Maximum Gross Weight: 30,480 kg / 67,200 lb
Tare Weight: 3,050 kg / 6,720 lb
Maximum Payload: 27,430 kg / 60,480 lb
Cubic Capacity: 31 m³ / 1,094 cu.ft.
These operational ratings reflect actual engineering ratings for heavy-duty cargo handling.
This container is manufactured using precision CNC cutting and standardized welding processes to maintain high structural stability.
For a full-side-opening container, the door openings and surrounding frame form an integral part of the approved structural design. Any custom modification to the side-opening arrangement is fully engineered and reviewed prior to production.
The steel structure undergoes Sa2.5 abrasive blast cleaning before painting.
The specified coating system consists of:
Zinc-rich epoxy primer
Epoxy intermediate coat
Acrylic top coat
Paint thickness and coating adhesion are strictly inspected and verified as part of our quality-control procedures.
Classified under ISO Special Containers, this product is engineered in full compliance with ISO 1496-1 standards.
Its full-side-opening design provides enhanced lateral accessibility while maintaining the structural integrity and transport functionality of a standard ISO freight container.
The 20' Full Side Opening Container is designed for transportation and storage applications where wide lateral access improves cargo handling efficiency.
Full-side access accelerates pallet loading and unloading via forklift, allowing direct placement into designated positions without the need to work exclusively through rear end doors.
Cargo that is difficult to maneuver through a conventional end-door opening can benefit from the larger lateral access provided by a full-side-opening design.
Typical applications can include:
● Packaged industrial equipment
● Wide components
● Bulky cargo
● Machinery
● Irregularly shaped goods
The full side opening provides greater flexibility when positioning machinery and industrial components inside the container.
The recommended loading configuration is determined by:
● Cargo dimensions
● Cargo weight
● Center of gravity
● Side opening dimensions
● Handling equipment
● Cargo securing requirements
Side-opening containers optimize operations where stored goods require selective or frequent retrieval. Lateral door access allows operators to access specific cargo bays directly without unstuffing items placed near the door.
Our standard ocean container products are fully engineered for seamless multimodal logistics across global rail, road, and maritime networks. Transport arrangements are confirmed based on the approved container specification, CSC plate details, loading plan, and carrier requirements.
