Maersk: Paint it red

Maersk: Paint it red
26/02/2018

It is an unusual sight to see dry boxes coming out of Maersk Container Industry’s factory in China that are not dressed in all-gray, accompanied by the blue star. Nonetheless, around 8,000 new forty-foot dry containers with the distinctive red exterior paint and white lettering are ready to get global trade moving.

“Watching those powerful red boxes leaving the factory makes us very proud,” says Sean S. Fitzgerald, CEO of Maersk Container Industry. “We’re happy to welcome Hamburg Süd to the family with a brand-new batch of industry-competitive and high-quality containers that support Hamburg Süd’s well-known reputation of quality delivery.”

The containers were built in Dongguan from 15 January to 9 February. Besides the high-quality standards that customers will experience, the production also represents good business value, says Fitzgerald, enabling consistent and competitive production at full capacity.
