Fixed wall containers are designed with shorter, non-collapsible sidewalls with one-piece molded base construction. These features make them ideal for heavy-weight, low-volume applications. All the Ropak Fixed Wall containers offer a maximum capacity of 2,000 lbs. (907 kg). Because the Fixed Wall containers do not collapse, their return ratio is 1:1. However, their shorter heights allow for maximum cube efficiency when building a truckload shipment, as the “wasted space” above a full-capacity container load is minimized. Black containers are standard, however, users may choose from a variety of colours to further customize their containers. All of the Ropak Fixed Wall containers are RFID-ready and come with a three-year warranty. The containers may also be recycled at the end of their useful lives.
