FAQS about Mauritius Foldable Container Off-Network Cost Analysis
Do foldable Containers save money?
particularly because empty transport can never be completely eliminated (see se ction 2). The potential cost savings of foldable containers however extend beyond low transport costs. containers also provides cost savings. Nevertheless there are obviously hacks and eyes on
Are foldable containers a viable alternative to empty containers?
However, due to trade imbalances transport movements of empty containers remain to some extent unavoidable. Therefore, foldable containers seem an attractive option from the point of view of saving transport costs as well as handling and storage costs. So far, however, these containers have not been introduced successfully.
How do shipping lines manage empty containers?
Empty container transport involves high costs, particularly for shipping lines, since they generally bear these container management costs. Not surprisingly, shipping lines try to reduce the costs of moving empty containers as much as they can. Most strategies are focussed on improving the instruments to match cargo with empty containers.
What is the best fleet management model for liner shipping networks?
Shintani, Konings, and Imai (2012) introduced a fleet management model for liner shipping networks by considering both foldable and standard containers, which motivated our study, and the mathematical model used revealed the optimal mix of using both types of containers in the fleet.
