There are many different types of cargo baskets to choose from, and what you choose will depend on your specific needs for your offshore applications. Cargo baskets can be made to your custom specifications, and it's important that you get exactly what you need when ordering.
Cargo baskets are most useful for holding pipes, risers, tools, and similar items -- and can be made to be set up for mostly stationary utilization, or for constant mobility. Because of the ability to customize cargo baskets, there are several questions you will want to ask in order to assess your needs:
- What is the main commodity to be held?
- What is the size of the commodity to be held?
- Where will the commodity be used?
- How often will the contents need to be moved?
By starting with these four questions, you will be able to address your offshore needs and create custom cargo baskets accordingly. For example, if you need to house pipes, to remain mostly stationary, and keep them in an area that is readily accessible, you may want to purchase cargo baskets specifically made for pipes (pipe baskets). The best way to do that is to order custom cargo baskets that will house your pipes safely and comfortably. If, on the other hand, you will need to have cargo baskets that hold a variety of different sized cargo, with both very large and very small items, you may wish to choose a design that will allow for compartmentalization -- so that the small items don't sift to the bottom and become difficult to access.
Another practical use for cargo baskets are toolboxes. These cargo baskets can be made in all different sizes, depending on the size, shape, and amount of tools that need to be held. Some of the smallest cargo baskets can be made at 1.4 square meters, and can get much larger -- all depending on your specific applications.
Cargo baskets can be made with lift slots for forklifts, and can be designed to hold a variety of objects together, with special lips and seals to keep even small objects from falling out, and can even be made with drain plugs for liquid commodities. This is why having custom cargo baskets are the ideal solution for any commodity or mix of cargo -- they can be made to house specific items safely and securely.
