he container manufacturing sector of the freight carrier industry is an essential industry within the business of freight and the building of specialized container transports designed for the specific transport requirements of particular kinds of freight allows for the transport of many kinds of volatile and sensitive cargo around the world. Containers for the transport of pharmaceuticals, sensitive plants, and volatile chemicals are normal in the world of container manufacturing, but now a new use seems to have been found for the containers that normally protect valuable freight loads as they move around the planet.
We’re talking about a new idea that we first noticed being implemented in Vancouver a few months back. A few months back one trucking services firm came up with a novel way to help alleviate the problem with homeless people on the streets of Vancouver. They took one of their containers and transformed it into a home for homeless people to live in during the toughest times of their lives. This idea seems to be catching on as now Sea Box Inc has recently been working with a military engineer trying to help the people of Haiti recover from their recent problems. Sea Box Inc shipped a special container they built loaded with the essentials of life that the people of Haiti need right now, along with one of their ShelterPak packages which will allow the container to be converted into a habitable shelter for people in need.
The idea of using containers to provide shelter for people in need during crisis times seems to be a very useful idea and in both instances reports are that the idea has met with applause and in the case of the container used in Vancouver to house the homeless was very successful in the task. We have yet to see how useful this idea is in Haiti, but it seems like a very feasible idea for quickly getting everything people need to survive during times of crisis to the people fast and efficiently. If successful, we could certainly see container manufacturers come up with a product that could meet the future needs of organizations that are tasked with reacting in times of crisis around the world.
