We manufacture and export reefer (refrigerated) containers, dry cargo containers, offshore containers, insulated containers, tank containers, modular containers and special containers such as side-open-door, roll-up-door and open-top units. Used reefer and used dry containers are also available.

Can you build customized OEM/ODM containers?

Yes. We accept tailor-made OEM and ODM orders. Our engineers review your cargo, route and operating environment, then confirm a drawing covering size, door configuration, insulation, refrigeration unit and finish before production begins.

Which certifications and standards do your containers meet?

CIMIC holds a BV (Bureau Veritas) shipping certificate and an ISO quality certificate. Standard units follow ISO container dimensions, and our offshore dry cargo containers are manufactured in line with DNV certification requirements for offshore service.

Which refrigeration unit brands are available for reefer containers?

Our reefer range includes models fitted with Thermo King, Daikin and Carrier refrigeration units, offered in 10ft, 20ft, 20ft high-cube, 40ft and 40ft high-cube sizes depending on the model.

Where are your used containers located?

Our second-hand containers are stored at various ports in China. We share condition details and photos of the specific units on request so you can approve them before shipment.

Where is CIMIC located and which markets do you serve?

We operate from Tianjin and Suzhou, China, about 100 km from the seaport. Our containers are exported worldwide, with Africa, Europe and the Americas as our main markets.

Corten Steel Structure Quality

1. China Factory Supply Chain Clusters: Scale, Speed, and Material Metallurgical Integrity

In modern intermodal freight operations, transit containers act as the structural backbone of intercontinental cargo security. Fabricating a container that withstands repetitive stacking up to 9 tiers high on container vessels requires meticulous raw material selection. Utilizing premier Corten A (SPA-H) weathering steel from localized integrated mills ensures supreme atmospheric corrosion resistance. Our manufacturing centers in Tianjin and Suzhou leverage an unrivaled industrial cluster, securing everything from laser-cut corrugated steel side panels to zinc-rich epoxy multi-layer coatings within tight geographical radiuses.

Operating approximately 100 kilometers from the automated deepwater container berths of Tianjin Port and coastal logistics channels allows immediate FOB release, zero inland dispatch bottlenecks, and minimized pre-haulage carbon impact. Our advanced robotic GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) processes guarantee impenetrable, continuous seam welds that eliminate pinhole air leaks—a foundational requirement for gas tightness in specialized atmospheric and refrigerated container builds.

2. Localized Compliance, International Certifications & Traceability Assurance

Cross-border customs and maritime administration bodies strictly mandate that transit containers comply with standardized structural testing under ISO 1496-1. Our specialized production lines hold Bureau Veritas (BV) classification approvals, ISO 9001 quality management seals, and full CSC (International Convention for Safe Containers) safety approval plates. When supplying offshore platforms, container designs step up to DNV 2.7-1 / EN 12079 standards, built with dynamic offshore lifting pad-eyes, low-temperature impact test charpy certifications, and non-destructive examination (NDE/NDT) of all primary structural welds.

For international cold-chain compliance, reefer units equipped with Thermo King, Daikin, or Carrier Transicold electric compressors strictly conform to ATP regulations (Agreement on the International Carriage of Perishable Foodstuffs), securing documented thermal heat leakage coefficient (K-value) performance down to deep freezer thresholds (-30°C to -60°C).

Procurement Knowledge Base

Frequently Asked Questions for Container Importers

Direct answers addressing technical validations, delivery conditions, customized CAD workflows, and global shipping warranties.

What structural grades and anti-corrosion treatments are standard for your transit containers?

All primary load-bearing members, including corner posts, side rails, and corrugated panel sheets, are built from high-tensile Corten A (SPA-H) weathering steel. Steel surfaces undergo automated shot blasting to Swedish SA 2.5 standard, followed immediately by a 3-layer protective coating system: zinc-rich epoxy primer (30μm), epoxy intermediate paint (40μm), and chlorinated rubber or polyurethane topcoat (40-50μm), guaranteeing superior salt-spray corrosion protection up to 10+ years.

How does the OEM / ODM custom engineering workflow operate from drawing to delivery?

Our engineering center reviews your specific payloads, access requirements (e.g., full side-opening doors, roller shutters, partition bulkheads), and operating climate. We generate complete 3D SolidWorks and 2D CAD engineering approval prints. Once signed off, a physical prototype or pre-production model is constructed, verified with load testing (floor strength, roof rigidity, racking, and end-wall deflection tests), before mass production lines are initialized.

Which refrigeration power supplies and machinery are fitted onto your reefer fleet?

We partner with industry-leading refrigeration giants including Thermo King (Magnum Plus series), Carrier Transicold (ThinLINE / PrimeLINE), and Daikin (LXE series). Operating power configurations run on standard 380V/460V 3-phase dual frequency (50/60Hz) with integrated clip-on or underslung diesel generator sets (gensets) available for long-haul overland trucking where continuous electrical grid connections are unavailable.

What documentation is delivered alongside export shipments for swift port clearance?

Every shipment arrives with valid Bureau Veritas (BV) or classification society safety approval certificates, valid CSC safety plate stamps, factory inspection checklists (FAT report), timber floor treatment declarations meeting Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) standards (TCT treated), and comprehensive commercial export paperwork (Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin).

Can used shipping containers be selected and inspected prior to vessel loading in China?

Yes. Our second-hand container yards across major Chinese coastal hubs (Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, Ningbo, Shenzhen) hold extensive stocks of Cargo Worthy (CW) and IICL-5 certified units. We furnish comprehensive high-resolution photo documentation, video walkthroughs, pre-trip inspection (PTI) test reports for reefers, and welcome third-party surveyor inspections before release.
