Dimensions and technical specifications of the 12m container

This 40-foot High Cube container is among the most spacious variants on the market. Thanks to its height of 2,896 mm (compared to the standard 2,591 mm), it provides an internal volume of approximately 76.3 m³, which you will appreciate when storing bulky materials. The basic dimensions are as follows:

• External length: 12,192 mm (40 feet)
• External width: 2,438 mm
• External height: 2,896 mm (High Cube)
• Internal length: 12,032 mm
• Internal width: 2,352 mm
• Internal height: 2,698 mm
• Load capacity: up to 30,480 kg (with even distribution)
• Volume: approximately 76.3 m³

Dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

The steel construction made of corten material guarantees resistance to corrosion even in the aggressive environment of mines and open-pit quarries.

IICL 6 quality – guarantee of full operability

The IICL 6 designation means that the container meets the strict standards of the Institute of International Container Lessors (IICL). This is the so-called “cargo worthy” condition – fully suitable for sea, rail, and road transport. It undergoes a detailed inspection that includes checks of:

• integrity of walls, roof, and floor,
• door functionality and sealing,
• absence of light leaks (light test),
• and overall structural integrity.

In practice, this means you will receive a container with no signs of damage, smooth door operation, and reliable protection against water and dust. For brown coal mining, this quality is crucial – the container withstands vibrations, dusty environments, and frequent relocation.

RAL 1015 color – light elegance with practical benefits

RAL 1015, also known as light ivory, offers an aesthetic and at the same time highly functional appearance. This warm, cream color ensures:

• Better visibility in environments with limited lighting, increasing safety during handling.
• Low heat absorption – the container does not overheat in the sun, protecting stored equipment.
• Resistance to soiling by brown coal dust – dirt on a light surface is quickly detected and easily removed.

The surface is treated with a high-quality two-component paint with anti-corrosion protection, so it retains its appearance even after years in demanding conditions.

Easy Open Door (EOD) and 12x Air Vents – comfort and ventilation

The Easy Open Door system brings a revolution in everyday use. The special mechanism with a lever and integrated bearings allows for light and quiet opening even after repeated use. When working in a contaminated environment, you will appreciate that the doors do not require excessive force and the seal fits perfectly, preventing the ingress of dust and moisture.

Twelve ventilation openings (air vents) actively support air circulation. This feature is irreplaceable when storing materials sensitive to moisture or when converting into residential or working spaces. In the brown coal mining environment, where temperature fluctuations and condensation can occur, ventilation grilles help maintain a stable microclimate inside the container.

Use in brown coal mining – flexibility, safety, and reliability

This container has been designed with the specific needs of mines, quarries, and related operations in mind. Its use ranges from basic storage to sophisticated conversions, and thanks to its mobility, it perfectly adapts to the changing requirements of modern mining.

Who is this container suitable for?

• Mining companies looking for robust mobile storage.
• Companies performing reclamation and managing mine waters.
• Subcontractors of machinery, tools, and protective equipment.
• Maintenance and repair crews operating directly in the field.

Storage options – what all can you store?

The volume of 76.3 m³ offers enormous space. One container can comfortably fit:

• Up to 20 standard euro pallets with material.
• Dozens of tires for heavy mining machines.
• Spare parts, bearings, filters, and hydraulic components.
• Working tools such as drills, chains, ropes, or power generators.
• Protective equipment – helmets, reflective vests, respirators.
• Separate cabinets with chemicals or lubricants (with appropriate additional equipment).

Thanks to its solid steel walls, it also serves as a safe for more valuable equipment or documentation. The interior can be equipped with racks, shelves, or partitions for an organized storage system.

How much fits in a 40-foot High Cube container?

For illustration: one such container holds roughly 55,000 liters of bulk material, or 100 pieces of 200-liter barrels including handling space. When using pallet storage, you can store up to 20 full pallets. The volume limit of 30 tons allows you to store even very heavy metal ingots or tools.

Transport options – what to transport and how?

The container is typically transported on a flatbed or semi-trailer. It can be used as:

• Mobile storage – on Monday, a crane loads it onto a vehicle and transports it to a remote shaft, where it serves all week.
• Transport unit for moving entire workshops – smaller machines, welding units, or compressors can be safely secured inside.
• Dry and safe space for coal samples, geological equipment, or measuring instruments.

Thanks to IICL certification, it is approved for all types of public transport and meets the strength requirements for stacking – you can transport it stacked with other units.

Conversion options – what can be created in a container?

In addition to classic storage, the high load capacity and door construction open the door to creative conversions. In the brown coal mining environment, the following have proven themselves:

• Mobile offices for shift managers, geologists, or administration – just add insulation and electricity.
• Rest rooms for employees with equipment for heating meals and a toilet.
• Charging stations for battery-powered devices, lights, or radios.
• Workshops for basic repairs – welding machines, grinders, and shelving systems can be installed.
• Storage of hazardous materials – after adding a containment tank and ventilation.
• Sanitary units with a shower and social facilities for the hygiene of field workers.

Advantages and other uses

• Unlimited mobility – the container is certified for repeated loading and relocation, so you can use it in northern Bohemia today and in another quarry next year.
• Stackability – up to 6 units on top of each other save space at transshipment points.
• Resistance to moisture and wind – the closed system protects stored items even in bad weather.
• Safety – robust double doors can be fitted with a lock and secured against unauthorized entry.
• Quick availability – the container is immediately available for pickup and requires no construction modifications.

Recommendations and ideas for maximum use

Consider equipping with shelves for easy organization of small parts. For work in dusty environments, it is advisable to add dust filters to the ventilation grilles. If you use the container as a hybrid workshop and storage, place a workbench on one side and a shelving system on the other. If you need more light, external LED lights powered by a generator can be easily installed. Also think about safety markings and warning tapes for better visibility.
