Our most recent product development is the new external loading EL-RAK, which entered the market in 2018 and has substantially improved car loading operations prior to shipping. The EL-RAK uses identical and adjustable cassettes and bases that can be assembled to fit all vehicle makes and models, allowing you to position multiple vehicles in a single container.

Advantages of the EL-RAK

Here’s what the development of the EL-RAK means for containerised vehicle shipping:

  • It cuts down on the amount of equipment needed, a major improvement over other loading systems that require multiple cassettes of different sizes.
  • Assembly and operation are straightforward and no special skills are needed.
  • It gives you the ability to transport different-sized vehicles in the same container.
  • The cassettes and bases are made of lightweight steel, so multiple units can be returned in a single container, lowering return costs.
  • With the development of this system, we have been able to challenge the long-held assumption that a container’s carrying capacity was limited to 2 cars. Using the EL-RAK or R-RAK system, you can fit up to 4 vehicles in a 40-ft container, or 6 small cars in a 45-ft unit.

In summary, the EL-RAK maximises load efficiency, which translates into lower costs. If you are looking for the most reliable and cost-effective way to ship vehicles around the globe, we are confident the EL-RAK will meet your needs.
