Are you looking for a reliable, spacious, and immediately available storage or transport space that also offers a wide range of conversion options? Our shipping container of 20 ft (6 meters) in IICL 6 quality after one sea voyage, in an attractive anthracite color RAL 7016, is an ideal solution for manufacturers of durable salty baked goods, as well as for many other business purposes. The container is stored at the Zlín depot and ready for immediate pickup – on its own, transport is not included in the price.

Dimensions, load capacity, and volume of the 20 ft container

A standard 20 ft shipping container has external dimensions of approximately 6.06 m (length) × 2.44 m (width) × 2.59 m (height). The interior space is slightly smaller, typically 5.90 m in length, 2.35 m in width, and 2.39 m in height, creating a volume of approximately 33 m³. The maximum load capacity is around 28,000 kg, while the container itself weighs approximately 2,200 kg. These parameters make it an exceptionally versatile and robust unit for both storage and transport. The dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

IICL 6 quality after one sea voyage – what it means

The IICL 6 designation is a guarantee of top condition of the container. It is an international standard that stipulates that the container has made only one sea voyage and has subsequently undergone a thorough technical inspection according to the criteria of the Institute of International Container Lessors (IICL). Containers of this quality are practically as new – without visible dents, holes, corrosion, or floor damage. All door seals are intact, the walls are clean and even, and the floor is solid and free of moisture traces. For food manufacturers, where hygiene is key, this condition of the container represents an ideal starting point for storing raw materials and finished products.

Color RAL 7016 – anthracite grey

The container is painted in shade RAL 7016, known as anthracite grey. This dark, elegant shade looks professional and easily fits into any operational environment. The anthracite color is also practical – common dirt is not as visible on it, and at the same time it withstands weather conditions better than light shades. Please note that our depot has more pieces in the same quality and size, but the color of the container may vary upon request. If RAL 7016 is important to you, simply inquire when ordering.

Use of the container for manufacturers of durable salty baked goods

For manufacturers of salty sticks, pretzels, crackers, potato snacks, and similar products, a shipping container offers countless possibilities. This section discusses in detail for whom the container is suitable, how it can be used for storage, transport, and conversion.

Who is the container suitable for

The container will be appreciated by small and medium-sized bakeries, family snack manufacturers, start-ups in the field of durable salty baked goods, as well as large manufacturers who need to expand their storage capacity or address seasonal fluctuations. It is also ideal for entrepreneurs who want to expand into new regions or markets where storage facilities are lacking.

Storage options and what can be stored in the container

Thanks to the enclosed, dry, and well-ventilated space, the container is made for storing dry raw materials such as flour, salt, sugar, oils in closed containers, packaging materials (boxes, foils, bags), and finished products – packaged salty sticks, pretzels, crackers, potato chips, or extruded snacks. The container can be equipped with shelving systems to create a well-organized warehouse with high capacity. Due to the absence of windows, the interior is also protected from sunlight, which could reduce the durability of the products.

How much fits in a 20 ft container

A 20 ft container holds a standard of up to 10 euro pallets (1200 × 800 mm) in one row on the floor, or up to 11 pallets with optimized placement. By stacking pallets and using racks, the capacity can be significantly increased. The volume of approximately 33 m³ allows storing, for example, several tons of packaged snacks at once. For illustration: an ordinary cardboard box of salty sticks takes up approximately 0.02 m³, so theoretically over 1,500 such boxes can fit in a container, depending on the shape and method of loading.

Transport options and what to transport

The container is certified for sea, road, and rail transport. For manufacturers of durable baked goods, this means easy export of finished products abroad, import of raw materials in large volumes, or centralized distribution to retail chains. Both palletized goods and loosely loaded boxes can be transported. The container ensures that the goods arrive dry, undamaged, and without contamination.

Conversion options for manufacturers of salty snacks

A shipping container can be converted to suit the needs of the manufacturer. The most common conversions include:

• Mobile warehouse with shelves and integrated lighting.
• Insulated warehouse for maintaining a stable temperature (suitable for storing chocolate coatings or fats).
• Sales stall or mobile shop at festivals, markets, and sporting events.
• Tasting room with seating for presenting new products to business partners.
• Office facilities on the production yard – cloakroom for employees, relaxation room.
• Mobile dispatch point from where e-shop shipments are sent directly.

Conversions can be implemented according to individual requirements and standards applicable to food operations – including washable surfaces, hygienic floors, and sufficient ventilation.

Advantages of a shipping container for manufacturers of durable baked goods

• Immediate availability – the container is in stock at the Zlín depot.
• Rapid expansion of storage capacity without lengthy construction.
• Mobility – the container can be easily moved by truck to another location.
• Security – lockable doors with sealing protect against moisture, pests, and unauthorized entry.
• Long service life – the steel construction withstands demanding conditions.
• Flexibility of use – from warehouse to transport to conversion into a shop.

Other uses and mobility

In addition to its primary purpose for snack manufacturers, the container can also be used as a classic warehouse for tools, garden equipment, seasonal equipment, or as facilities for employees. Its mobility allows seasonal relocations – for example, in summer to festivals, where it can serve as a sales stall, and in winter back to the company premises as a raw material warehouse.

Recommendations and ideas for manufacturers of salty sticks and snacks

• If you are planning a conversion into a sales stall, we recommend choosing a window with a counter and awning for comfortable sales.
• When storing raw materials, ensure regular ventilation and humidity control – this can be achieved by installing ventilation grilles.
• Use the container as a “showroom” for B2B partners – equip it with shelves with samples and comfortable lighting.
• For e-shops with durable baked goods, the container can serve as a pick-up point or warehouse for packing shipments.
• By combining two containers side by side, you will get a generous storage space that can be connected.

Information on container pickup from the Zlín depot

Transport of the container is not included in the price and the customer must arrange it independently, including unloading at the destination. After closing the deal, we will send you all the documents necessary for picking up the container from the container terminal in Zlín. We have multiple pieces of the same quality and size in stock at the depot, so the specific piece received may differ from the photograph – however, you will always receive a container in the same category, dimensions, and condition. Please consult the color of the container in advance. For safety reasons, customers are not allowed to enter the depot for inspection purposes.
