GE-SeaCo "Sea Cell" Containers

GE-SeaCo operates a small fleet of extra-wide (2.5m) dry van containers called "Sea Cells". These containers have the side ribs on the outside, thus allowing a greater inside width to allow better stuffing of Euro-standard pallets while still being able to interlock with standard 8'-0" wide containers. GE-SeaCo provides a nice description of their "Sea Cells" here: http://www.seacell.info

Although they are technically a non-standard size, they do travel around the world mixed in with standard ISO containers. They even show up in the United States now and then, so keep an eye out for them.
