Storage container EOD system and IICL6 quality, 718 582-0

This 20-foot shipping container is the ideal helper for anyone looking for a safe, lockable and at the same time affordable storage space. Thanks to its one-trip IICL 6 quality, practical opening system and thoughtful ventilation, it holds a firm place not only in logistics, but above all as a specialized warehouse for fireworks retailers. Container transport throughout the Czech Republic is free of charge once the conditions listed below are met.

The container has minor optical defects, which is why it is offered at a reduced price.

Dimensions, Load Capacity and Volume of the 20-Foot Container

The 20-foot container has standardized dimensions, which makes it easy to handle, transport and place on a property. The external length is 6,058 mm, width 2,438 mm and height 2,591 mm. Inside, you get a usable space approximately 5,898 mm long, 2,352 mm wide and 2,385 mm high, which corresponds to a total internal volume of roughly 33 m³. The gross load capacity (maximum gross weight) is 28,000 kg, the tare weight of the empty container is around 2,200 kg, so the payload reaches up to 25,800 kg. Such a capacity is more than sufficient for storing hundreds of kilograms of pyrotechnic products, shelving and other equipment. The dimensions are indicative and may always vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

One-Trip Quality IICL 6 – What It Means

Containers in “one-trip” quality have completed only one sea voyage and subsequently passed a thorough inspection according to the IICL 6 standard. This grade means that the container is fully functional, structurally flawless, watertight and shows no significant damage. Minor optical defects, such as slight abrasions, scratches or localized discoloration, are present in this particular unit, and therefore it is offered under even more favorable conditions. For storage purposes, you get an almost new container with an intact floor, doors and seals that meets all the requirements for the safe storage of goods, without having to invest in a completely flawless piece.

Color RAL 7016 – Anthracite Gray with Practical Advantages

The container is painted in the shade RAL 7016, known as anthracite gray. This dark, elegant tone is not only aesthetically neutral and inconspicuous, but also practical – it excellently masks common dirt and does not reflect excessive light. The color is applied with a highly durable coating that protects the steel structure against corrosion and UV radiation. The container thus looks professional and fits into any company premises without drawing unnecessary attention.

3-Bar EOD Opening System (Easy Open Door)

One of the greatest advantages of this container is the opening mechanism with three locking bars, referred to as EOD (Easy Open Door). Each door leaf is operated by a single vertical bar that rotates and locks easily. Thanks to this, you can access the container in a matter of seconds – simply release the handles, turn the bars and the doors open. The system is designed so that handling is smooth even with frequent use, which is a huge advantage for a warehouse where goods are picked daily. No special force is required to open it and everything is reliably locked against unwanted opening.

4x Air Vents – Ventilation That Protects the Contents

The container is equipped with four ventilation openings (Air Vents), located in the upper part of the side walls. These vents ensure natural air circulation and prevent moisture buildup and condensation inside. This is absolutely crucial for the storage of pyrotechnics – maintaining a stable microclimate minimizes the risk of the products getting damp, the formation of mold and corrosion of packaging. At the same time, ventilation helps to remove any fumes from certain types of consumer fireworks and contributes to the overall safety of the stored goods.

Use of the Storage Container for a Fireworks Retailer

A steel container is naturally resistant to fire and mechanical damage, and therefore meets the basic requirements for a separate warehouse of pyrotechnic products. A wide range of products can be stored inside – from small consumer firecrackers and sparklers, through Roman candles, batteries, smoke grenades, fountains, to professional fireworks components and signaling devices. In addition to the products themselves, there is room for safety equipment, igniters, firing devices, tools and packaging material. Thanks to the lockable doors and massive construction, the container is also protection against unauthorized access and theft.

How Much Fireworks Fit in a 20-Foot Container

The internal volume of 33 m³ provides enough space to store dozens of pallets. As standard, 10 euro pallets can be placed in the container in one layer; with the use of height and racking systems, significantly more. With commonly packaged consumer pyrotechnics (e.g. a 30 × 30 × 30 cm box), approximately 2,000 to 3,000 pieces can fit in a 20-foot container, depending on the specific packaging dimensions. Wholesale fireworks dealers can therefore comfortably store their entire seasonal stock without having to rent expensive hall premises.

Benefits for Fireworks Retailers

• Mobility – the container can be relocated to another place according to current needs, for example closer to the point of sale during the season.
• Quick installation – after delivery and unloading by crane, it is immediately ready for use, you do not need a building permit (on private land, a notification is usually sufficient).
• Moisture protection – thanks to ventilation and tight doors, the contents remain dry even in adverse weather.
• Safety – the steel construction, lockable doors and the option of adding an alarm or smoke detectors increase protection against burglary and fire.
• Economical option – thanks to minor optical defects, you get a fully functional warehouse at lower acquisition costs.

Who Is the Container for Fireworks Most Suitable For

This storage container will be appreciated above all by seasonal and year-round sellers of consumer fireworks, companies specializing in the organization of fireworks and cultural events, equipment rental companies, as well as municipalities that need to safely store pyrotechnics for town festivities. It is also suitable for smaller manufacturers or distributors who want to expand their storage capacities without the need to build a masonry warehouse.

Where to Place the Container

The container can be placed practically anywhere where there is a flat and reinforced surface – in the courtyard of the premises, a parking lot near the store, in the company premises, at the edge of a garden or on a remote plot. For fireworks retailers, it is advantageous to place it near the main store to ensure quick access to goods. Given that the container does not require complicated preparation of the base, you can easily move it to the venue of a larger event, where it will serve as a temporary warehouse.

Other Possibilities of Using the Container in the Field of Pyrotechnics

In addition to classical storage, the container can also be used as a mobile sales stand with a dispensing window, a service background for technicians preparing fireworks, or even as a small workshop for assembling effects. With suitable equipment with lighting and work tables, it becomes a fully functional workplace where firing systems can be prepared and protected from adverse weather just before the show.

Where in the Czech Republic It Is Worth Using the Container

The largest concentration of pyrotechnics sellers can be found in large cities such as Prague, Brno, Ostrava, Plzeň or Liberec, where there is high demand for New Year’s Eve and year-round assortment. In these locations, there is often a lack of storage space at a reasonable price – a container is therefore an ideal solution. It is also popular in spa towns (Karlovy Vary, Mariánské Lázně) and historic towns with a tradition of fireworks (Český Krumlov, Kutná Hora), where pyrotechnics are used at town festivals and cultural events. The container can also be placed without problems near the borders, for example for traders who import pyrotechnics and need an intermediate warehouse.

Possibilities and Ideas for Even Better Storage

If you want to get the most out of your container, supplement it with racking systems that allow orderly storage of boxes and easy access to individual items. The installation of LED lighting powered from an external source or a solar panel will make work easier even in the evening. To increase safety, we recommend adding a smoke detector and a lock with a certified security class. The container can also be rented to other sellers during the main season, which will also make it a source of income.
