  • The ID-216’s knock-out panels allow seamless connectivity, transforming standalone units into interconnected hubs for expanded storage or workspaces.
  • Insulated walls, electrical systems, and integrated lighting offer flexibility and functionality for diverse operational environments.
  • The ID-216 excels in providing increased flexibility to global transport and mission-critical deployments.

The modern logistics and storage landscape demands innovation, flexibility, and reliability. The newly improved TriCon CSC Plated ISO Container ID-216 exemplifies these qualities, offering exceptional capabilities for both military and commercial applications. Designed with precision, these containers redefine storage solutions by combining compatibility, durability, and adaptability in one streamlined package.

Engineered for Compatibility

The ID-216 is a new iteration of the TriCon container series, which seamlessly integrates into existing intermodal transport frameworks, vastly increasing operational efficiency.

With its cargo doors located on both end walls and access panels on the long walls, the container offers unparalleled accessibility. These access points are not just convenient; they are strategically positioned to maximize usability in various configurations. Whether for rapid deployment scenarios or long-term storage, this design feature allows users to optimize their workflows effortlessly.

Moreover, the container’s CSC plating makes the ID-216 viable for international shipping and transportation, whether connected to other TriCons or used/shipped individually. Each ID-216 is a brand-new unit, not a refurbished or one-trip container.

Flexible Design with Knock-Out Panels

One of the ID-216’s hallmark features is its removable knock-out panels. Positioned along the long walls, these panels allow multiple containers to join, creating interconnected spaces. This feature opens up multiple possibilities for users.

  • Expanded Storage: Connect multiple units to build larger storage areas for bulk goods or sensitive equipment.
  • Custom Workspaces: Transform interconnected containers into operational hubs with specialized configurations, such as command centers, medical stations, or repair shops.

This modular approach aligns with the needs of various industries, providing a scalable solution without altering the container’s exterior structure.

Purpose-Built Interior Enhancements

While the ID-216 maintains standard exterior dimensions, its interior is thoughtfully modified for usability. Each unit is equipped with features that make it ready for action in diverse environments.

  • Insulated Walls: Protection from temperature extremes ensures goods and personnel remain secure and comfortable.
  • Interior Walls and Lighting: Built-in walls and lighting create a functional and habitable interior space.
  • Electrical Systems: The inclusion of exterior power panels, interior electrical sockets, and floor attaching points makes these containers operationally versatile.

Interior components can be removable or permanently integrated, depending on specific needs. This adaptability allows users to tailor the space to their unique requirements, striking a balance between functionality and flexibility.

Advanced Utility Wall for Enhanced Operations

The patented embedded secondary Utilities Wall is also available via NSN and elevates the container’s versatility further. This feature includes a secure, weather-tight personnel door, providing safe and easy access in all conditions. Additionally, an 18,000 BTU environmental control unit (ECU) provides effective heating and cooling, making the container a viable solution for harsh climates or temperature-sensitive operations.

Whether used as a standalone unit or part of a larger interconnected system, this innovative feature makes sure the ID-216 performs reliably, regardless of the scenario.

A Domestic End Product Compliant with DFARS

The ID-216 represents a commitment to quality and compliance. The container adheres to strict regulatory standards as a domestic end product under DFARS 225.003. This compliance reflects its superior manufacturing, making it a preferred choice for government and defense contracts.

With its high-grade construction and adherence to U.S. manufacturing regulations, the ID-216 sets a benchmark for quality and reliability.
