Help Protect Workers Against Falls
Fall prevention is a top concern for any company. Determining and implementing methods to keep your employees safe when they’re working with ISO Containers is critical to reducing workplace injuries.
ZHM Huawu Steel Solutions ISO Container enclosures provide maximum fall protection and help to protect your workers against slips, trips, and falls. Safety equipment isn’t one size fits all, which is why we customize all of our enclosures to meet your requirements and specifications.
ISO-container Loading Gangway
The requirements for the project necessitated ZHM Huawu Steel designing a safe and efficient loading rack for both ISO containers and standard single hatch chemical trailers. Along with our platform/ half canopy and access gangway our design incorporated a modified 5’ x 6’ four rail safety cage with an articulating outboard handrail.
This style cage provides appropriate fall prevention for the operators while accessing hatches on top of the wider ISOs; and for non ISO-containers the cage width can be reduced to minimize outboard gaps when accessing smaller diameter road trailers.
ISOtainers, also known as intermodal tank containers, offer a safe and effective method of transporting pressurized hydrocarbons such as LPG, dimethyl ether, butane, and other renewables. Including cryogenic products such as LNG—where marine or barge tankers are not viable. Specifically designed to meet the requirements of ISO 6346: Intermodal Freight Containers, ISOtainers are constructed of high-strength corrosion-resistant steel. They are available in various sizes and capacities and can be equipped with various fittings and accessories to meet the specific needs of the cargo. ISOtainers offer several advantages over conventional tank containers, including increased safety, flexibility, and efficiency. Unlike other types of containers, iso tanks are constructed with a seal that prevents leaks and spillage. As a result, they can transport up to 60-70% more liquid cargo than drums or flexibags. In addition, iso tanks are reusable and have a high resale value. As a result, they are an ideal choice for transporting large volumes of liquid cargo.
These containers have a utility hole on the top, at least one valve, and another on the bottom. Shaped like a cylinder, iso tank containers often transport hazardous and non-hazardous liquids by ship, rail, or road. The outer shell of the iso tank containers is weather-resistant, and the frame is very sturdy. The inner surfaces of the iso tank containers have a smooth finish so that the commodities transported will not get stuck to the sides or bottom of the container. Some examples of liquids transported in iso tank containers include fruit juices, vegetable oils, pharmaceuticals, detergents, and chemicals. There are several different types of ISO tanks; each are designed to meet the specific loading requirements of the products being transported:

ISO tanks must undergo regular inspections to ensure they are safe for use. Some tanks feature baffles to prevent the movement of liquids during transit, while others are equipped with pressure relief valves to protect against overpressure. In addition, all ISO tanks must be equipped with an emergency shut-off valve to prevent the release of dangerous materials in the event of an accident. By undergoing regular inspections, ISO tanks can ensure the safety of the hazardous materials they transport.
