Jindal Stainless, CJ Darcl Logistics unite to offer efficient containers

Jindal Stainless has announced a strategic collaboration with CJ Darcl Logistics to develop lightweight and sustainable stainless-steel containers designed for transporting a variety of goods, including polymers, batteries and rubber. The company supplied 2.2 metric tonnes of JT stainless steel for each container, replacing the traditional carbon steel used in the sidewalls, end walls and roof. In addition, the underframes of containers are also made up of customised stainless steel tubes, said reports. These transitions have resulted in a weight reduction of approximately 500 kilograms per container, leading to increased cargo capacity, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced operational costs. Additionally, the containers benefit from enhanced safety and prolonged life owing to the superior impact and fire resistance of JT grade stainless steel.
