A large proportion of containers are empty during return transport, which wastes space and increases freight costs. The foldable container, a flexible storage box made from plastic, has been especially developed for long distances and a large number of return trips.

Large foldable containers have the strength required to meet the demands of any supply chain and to achieve ease of access for the end users. As the container can be folded and stacked inside another, it offers considerable cost and space savings. It is an alternative returnable solution to both the rigid containers and one-way cardboard/wooden pallet containers.
