The shipping container industry is propelled by the rising trend towards eco-friendly solutions and specialized containers. Growing environmental consciousness fuels the demand for containers made from sustainable materials, reducing carbon footprints. Simultaneously, industries' need for specialized containers, such as reefers for perishable goods or flat racks for oversized cargo, reflects evolving logistics demands. These dual trends drive innovation and cater to the diverse needs of a dynamic global shipping industry.
For instance, in April 2023, AELER introduced its latest sustainable smart container, Unit One, the first of its kind made from composite materials. This innovative design boasts increased strength, insulation, and intelligence. With this enhancement, Unit One's capacity equals that of eight AELER containers, compared to the typical requirement of 10 regular containers.
