40'GP
BOXWELL
The 40'GP ISO Dry Cargo Shipping Container is a standard-height 40-foot enclosed freight container designed for general dry cargo transportation.
Unlike a 40'HC high cube container, this model uses the standard 8'6" / 2591 mm external height, making it suitable for conventional dry cargo applications where additional high-cube height is not required. It is classified under our Standard ISO Shipping Containers line.
Standard engineering specifications include:
● Maximum Gross Weight: 30,480 kg / 67,200 lb
● Tare Weight: 3,740 kg / 8,245 lb
● Maximum Cargo Weight: 26,740 kg / 58,955 lb
● Cubic Capacity: 67.8 m³ / 2,394 cu.ft.
These ratings reflect our strict structural standards for dependable heavy-duty transport.
The fixed roof, enclosed corrugated steel body, and conventional cargo doors provide a practical configuration for non-temperature-controlled freight.
The container is suitable for packaged cargo that requires an enclosed transport space during road, rail, and sea logistics.
The container is manufactured using precision CNC cutting and standardized welding processes to maintain structural stability and manufacturing consistency.
The main frame, corrugated panels, and other structural components are fabricated according to approved container designs and production requirements.
Before painting, the steel structure undergoes Sa2.5 abrasive blast cleaning.
The specified heavy-duty coating system consists of:
● Zinc-rich epoxy primer
● Epoxy intermediate coat
● Acrylic top coat
Paint thickness and coating adhesion are also inspected as part of the coating quality-control process.
This treatment provides robust protection for the steel structure against corrosion associated with outdoor storage, port environments, and marine transportation.
This product complies fully with ISO 1496-1 requirements and undergoes comprehensive testing, with full certification documentation and test reports provided.
The 40'GP ISO Dry Cargo Shipping Container is primarily designed for general dry cargo transportation within multimodal logistics systems.
The enclosed cargo compartment can accommodate a wide range of non-temperature-controlled goods, including:
● Cartoned goods
● Palletized products
● Packaged consumer goods
● Packaged industrial products
● Furniture and household goods
● General manufactured products
Cargo dimensions, total weight, and securing arrangements remain strictly within approved container specifications.
With an internal length of approximately 12,031 mm and an internal width of approximately 2,352 mm, the container provides a long enclosed cargo space suitable for palletized and packaged freight.
The loading plan is optimized around:
● Pallet dimensions
● Cargo weight
● Weight distribution
● Floor loading
● Cargo securing requirements
Packaged machinery components, manufactured products, and other industrial goods can be transported efficiently within the approved maximum cargo weight limit of 26,740 kg.
The cubic capacity of 67.8 m³ / 2,394 cu.ft. provides substantial enclosed space for shipments where volumetric efficiency is a critical factor.
Our standard ocean containers are engineered for seamless multimodal logistics shipments across global ports and can be incorporated directly into compatible sea, rail, and road transportation networks.

It is a standard-height 40-foot enclosed freight container designed for general dry cargo transportation. The GP designation refers to general-purpose configuration with an external height of 2,591 mm (8'6"), distinguishing it from a 9'6" high cube container.
The main difference is height. The 40'GP model has a standard external height of 2,591 mm (8'6"), whereas a high cube (40'HC) container measures 2,896 mm (9'6") to provide additional vertical cargo clearance and volume.
Standard parameters include:
● Maximum Gross Weight: 30,480 kg
● Tare Weight: 3,740 kg
● Maximum Cargo Weight: 26,740 kg
● Cubic Capacity: 67.8 m³
Standard dimensions are:
● External: 12,192 × 2,438 × 2,591 mm
● Internal: 12,031 × 2,352 × 2,393 mm
