Spectainer’s foldable containers upgraded with Nexxiot’s asset intelligence technology

Spectainer, which specialises in foldable containers, has partnered with IoT provider Nexxiot to enable real-time visibility of its fleet of ‘Collapsecon’ containers.

Collapsecon containers are intermodal boxes, which fold up using a fully-automated station so that each empty unit can be collapsed independently and then combined to form a single shipping container.

This approach is meant to significantly reduce the cost and environmental impact of shipping by improving vessel slot efficiency, port lifting, vessel wharfing time, yard storage space, trucking, and handling.
