History

The modern shipping container stands as one of the most revolutionary innovations in global trade. Before its arrival in the mid-20th century, cargo had to be loaded and unloaded piece by piece—a slow, expensive, and labor-intensive process known as break-bulk shipping. In the 1950s, American entrepreneur Malcom McLean transformed maritime logistics by introducing standardized steel containers that could move seamlessly between ships, trucks, and trains. This breakthrough drastically cut loading times, improved cargo security, and reduced transportation costs.

By the late 1960s, internationally unified standards for container sizes and locking systems allowed ports and shipping lines worldwide to adopt fully integrated handling equipment. The rapid expansion of containerization reshaped global economies, supporting mass production, long-distance supply chains, and the rise of modern international commerce. Today, more than 90% of non-bulk goods move by container ship, making the humble steel box one of the essential foundations of globalization.
