Langh unveils container for ore, scrap

   Langh Ship Cargo Solutions, a Finnish firm that makes specialty containers, said it has begun selling a special container aimed at the mining and steel industries.
   The 20-foot hard open-top bulk container has flat walls that are made of special steel that’s three-times stronger than normal Corten-steel, the company said. The containers are coated with a paint that endures the rigors of ores or scrap.
   Flush walls make the container easy to unload and there is no need for manual removing of cargo residues, Langh said.
   Langh said the container’s hard open-top makes loading fast for wheel loaders and bulk hatches on the roof offer silo loading. It said shields of the roof’s locking mechanism work as guide posts for the roof and special pockets make it possible to use forklifts to lift off container roofs.
