20ft Heavy Duty Open Top Container with Swinging Header
Cargostore’s 20ft Offshore Open Top Container with Swinging Headers are DNV 2.7-1 certified for offshore use with an increased payload and swinging header.
Cargostore’s DNV Open Top Containers are designed to accommodate larger objects that cannot be loaded into a regular sized shipping container. The 20ft Heavy Duty Open Top Container with Swinging Header also has the added benefits of a larger payload, as well as a swinging header for ease of access.
Open Tops have a removable tarpaulin cover that enables bulky items to be loaded and unloaded from the top. This makes them suitable for items such as lumber and scrap metal that might not easily fit into a container with a solid roof.
We supply DNV Open Top CCU’s in 10ft and 20ft standard and also a range of ISO certified Open Top Containers in various sizes.

What do open top containers carry?
Open top containers are like shipping containers but they have an extended capacity to allow for larger items. Open tops are ideal for loading scrap metal and timber with large cranes as they can just be loaded right into the container from the top which makes it a lot easier than loading a conventional storage container.
Other uses include:
- Recycling or waste material
- Over-height cargo
- Oversized cargo that needs the sides of the container to hold it in (rather than just using a flat rack or platform container)
- Construction supplies for wind farms or oil rigs
- Pipes and metal that is too tall for a regular container or too long for a flat rack container
