Features of APL Containers

 
 

APL offers a comprehensive fleet of high quality equipment.

Whichever equipment you select, you can be assured that your cargoes are in safe hands. That's because we attend to the smallest detail even at the equipment design stage, to bring you equipment of the highest standards in the industry.

Here are some of the standard features of the APL containers. Click on the pictures for an enlarged view.

Left Door Lock

There are no seal holes on the locking handle catches of all left doors to eliminate the security risk of putting the seal on the wrong locking handle catch.
