FAQs about Cost-effectiveness of fixed-type folding containers for research stations

Do foldable containers reduce repositioning costs?

In our ECR problem, the shipping company considers both transporting loaded containers and repositioning of empty containers over a planning horizon. Because empty repositioning incurs costs and consumes vessel capacity, foldable containers are used to reduce repositioning costs.

What factors affect the utilization of foldable containers?

The utilization of foldable containers is highly influenced by the additional costs of using foldable containers, such as folding and unfolding costs. When using foldable containers, folding and unfolding operations are required with additional labor.

Are foldable containers a good investment?

Despite high purchase costs and the additional folding and unfolding costs of foldable containers, foldable containers have advantages in the reduction of repositioning costs and saving in terms of storage space and vessel capacity.

Why are foldable containers so expensive?

The adoption of foldable containers leads to a new type of cost, folding and unfolding costs. The folding and unfolding operations need additional labor, which makes the introduction of folding containers difficult in areas where labor costs are high.
