There are different types of Ro-Ro containers that come in handy for tackling diverse kinds of applications. These containers are engineered and designed for robustness and durability, making use of high-grade steel and enabling higher compatibility with hook-lift truck systems for waste management, construction, and industrial needs in global markets like the UAE. Let us look at them in more detail below.
Different Types of Ro-Ro Containers - A Brief Overview
There are variations in Ro-Ro container capacity and even the Ro-Ro container sizes. Here is a look at some of the types that are usually offered by leading brands:
- Standard Hook-Lift Containers (10 CBM - 40 CBM): 10 CBM is a low-height and entry-level skip that is suitable for debris and construction waste. At the same time, there are 16 CBM and 18 CBM mid-range containers that are designed for handling bulk waste in waste management and recycling. Simultaneously, 20 CBM is the ideal size for green waste, industrial waste, and fit-out waste, while 24 and 30 CBM are large-scale containers for high-volume waste (solid waste haulage or industrial categories). 40 CBM are high-height and high-volume containers for maximum and heavy duty waste loads.
- Premium Hook-Lift Containers (16 CBM-20 CBM): The benefits of Ro-Ro containers in this category are that they have three side-wall ribs for higher durability and strength. They are built from premier raw materials, while enabling optimization for longer life cycles and higher payloads.
- Heavy-Duty Hook-Lift Containers (16 CBM-20 CBM): They are often built with HARDOX steel or its equivalent, thereby giving you long-term durability to tackle heavy materials and abrasive waste. Some brands may also coat or prime them in the RAL color of the customer’s choice.
- Specialty Containers (20 CBM): You will find recycling mesh containers in this category that are ideal for residential or community waste separation and slaughterhouse skip with top-hinged doors and rubber seals. Then there are toolbox containers which come with lockable doors and extra roofing to safely transport equipment and tools.
Choosing the Best Ro-Ro Containers to Meet Your Needs
Understanding how Ro-Ro containers are used in shipping, industrial waste, and other needs (residential or commercial) is important to make the best decision. You should look for containers that are made with high-grade steel along with bended and rounded side walls for optimal discharge of waste.
Check for top-lock devices for the rear doors and work-safety door locking mechanisms on the side if that’s necessary. You should also look for heavy-duty rollers and customization, along with varying hook heights based on local standards or DIN.
