One-Way IICL 6 Quality – What Does It Mean?
The IICL 6 quality designation is based on international standards of the Institute of International Container Lessors. This classification defines the technical condition of used containers and their suitability for further use.
One-Way IICL 6 quality means that the container was used for only one transport (a one-way trip) and was then retired from maritime transport. It is therefore a container in exceptionally good condition – without significant dents, without corrosion threatening the structure, and with fully functional doors including sealing. The floor is solid, undamaged, and shows no signs of leakage.
In short, IICL 6 quality in the One-Way category guarantees:
- Minimal signs of wear
- Fully functional door mechanisms
- Intact floor without signs of rot or damage
- Watertight and dustproof sealing
- Solid construction without static defects
- Visually very good condition
This quality is ideal for more demanding customers who plan to use the container not only for storage but also, for example, for conversion into a living space, office, workshop, or sales stand.
RAL 6007 Color – Subtle Elegance for Any Environment
RAL 6007 color, also known as bottle green or dark forest green, is one of the most popular shades used on shipping containers. This shade looks natural and inconspicuous, thanks to which the container easily blends into the surrounding landscape, industrial premises, and urban development.
RAL 6007 is a dark, muted green shade that, unlike brighter colors, does not attract unnecessary attention. It is also practical in terms of maintenance – dirt is not as visible on it as on lighter shades, and at the same time it gives a professional and serious impression. If you plan to place the container on a plot where it should blend in with vegetation or a natural environment, RAL 6007 is an excellent choice.
However, it is important to note that the color of the container is always subject to inquiry. There are more pieces at the depot, and color shades and availability change daily. Before ordering, it is therefore essential to check current stock and confirm the specific color version.
