Containers
Bates Cargo-Pak is particularly well-suited for securing container cargo.
Often transporting a container involves a combination of road, ship and rail transport. Therefore it is extremely important to consider the various influences the cargo may be exposed to under transit.
Airbags secure the products in place inside the container by assuming the precise shape of the gaps between the cargo and function as void fillers in between the cargo that should be secured.
Railroad
Powerful forces are unleashed during coupling – metal against metal – and the need for securing loads is essential. Bates Cargo-Pak inflatable airbags absorb the sudden jolts from coupling and the tremors and vibrations caused by rail joints and track shifting and protects the cargo in an ultimate and easy way.
Ship
The airbags must be strong enough to withstand even the most extreme stress loads to protect the cargo from transport damages.The special paper with high wet strength makes Bates Cargo-Pak totally unique. A high friction value ensures that the airbags stay put – even over very long distances and in rough seas. For years, fruit, meat products, frozen fish, paper reels, and much more have been secured in the cargo holds of ships using inflatable airbags from Bates Cargo-Pak.
Truck
Sharp turns, sudden braking, and roundabouts – It is in these situations that the airbag’s attributes truly come into their own and protects the cargo and transport from damages. Their flexibility is highlighted in the same way when cargo needs to be loaded and/or unloaded several times on the same trip.
