About
Since 2013, there have been incidents where over 21,000 containers unfortunately ended up in the ocean from ships, with around 30% of them carrying hazardous goods. Each lost container with hazardous goods has had significant environmental implications, making it a distressing situation. It's essential to note that hazardous goods containers should never be placed below deck on ships. Instead, they should be securely positioned above deck to minimize the risk of accidents during transportation.
The CRS container has the same dimensions as standard containers (fully compatible).
CRS is a new type of container that, unlike others, comes with a built-in safety system.
To minimize the loss of cargo space, there are several placement options for the safety system.
The safety system consists of inflatable float belts/modules, mechanics, and control electronics.
The safety system sends and receives data via SAT (location, diagnostics & triggering system).
A data center collects and processes all this data (hazardous goods transports can be monitored).
A Track and Trace platform for all future hazardous goods container transports at sea.
CRS comes with a significant responsibility to handle all this data with care.
