From sensitive electronic equipment to high value, fragile aircraft components and everything in between, sealed aluminum shipping and storage containers are the preferred method of protection from rough handling and weather elements. From the desert heat of the Middle East to Air Force bases in Alaska, aluminum shipping and storage containers surpass the requirements needed to protect valuable assets. CRC’s unique integration of sealing and handling features into a single extrusion has allowed our designers to develop a building block design approach. When welded to CRC’s exclusive corner tubes, you have a container base that has all the below features. Containers accommodate various handling equipment including forklifts, pallet jacks, MK-45 handtrucks and overhead slings. Tie Down, towing and lifting eyes/lugs are provided. The cover is constructed out of extrusions and formed aluminum sheet. Welded air tight, it becomes the upper half of the extruded aluminum container. Latched together it becomes a robust light weight shipping and storage container. Shock/vibration mitigation can be performed with cushioning material, shock mounted frame, or hold down arrangement.
