New Build Containers and Frames Testing

Launching a new container or offshore frame design without testing is risky. Without official type tests, you face production delays, failed approvals, costly redesigns, and non-compliance with international shipping standards.

At HTT, we make sure your new builds are tested, certified, and ready for safe global use.

Why Type Testing is Essential :

Type testing is required for:

• ✅ Safety & structural integrity – proving the container can handle real-world loads and conditions

• ✅ Certification & compliance – meeting ISO and DNV requirements for sea, road, or offshore use

• ✅ Cost savings – identifying weak points before mass production

• ✅ Faster rollout – once approved, you can deploy new units without delays

How HTT Helps You :

• ISO 1496 (structural container testing)
