It’s designed to replace the 60-year-old steel shipping container that’s at the core of this industry.Īccording to Aeler Technologies, the key benefits of the UNIT ONE container are a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions thanks to its additional payload and aerodynamic design, 11% more storage volume (up to 17% for flexitanks) thanks to the container’s flat insides, as well as drastic reductions in temperature variations thanks to the container’s structural insulation. With the Aeler container, we are reworking the very foundations of this trillion-dollar industry.”Īeler’s UNIT ONE container is light, robust, insulated, smart and can hold more payload too.
