PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The External Loaded Cassette System
We offer a one-of-a-kind solution which allows you to pre-stage cargo on our cassettes externally of the container. Dependent on the system in use, CBU-cars, SKD-cars, Motorbikes, or other freight can be pre-staged onto the cassette outside of the container. When container arrives at dispatch area, whether that is a warehouse, a depot, or anything in between, the pre-staged cassettes can be inserted into container with a forklift. Container loading can be done when the container is grounded, on a chassis, or at a loading dock. Turn-around time for actual container loading is less than 5 minutes, with containers remaining on the chassis. Systems are in no way dedicated to the container, which frees up containers for onward use. For every 10 to 15 loaded containers shipped, 1 container is returned with empty equipment. All cassette systems feature very few loose components, are easy to construct, user friendly, and require minimal maintenance. The base-units are constructed in sturdy steel, while any lose parts associated with the relevant system are easily replaced. Kar-Tainer offers a variety of solutions for loading both CBU- and SKD- vehicles, as well as solutions for Motorbikes and other smaller 2-wheelers. We also take on ad hoc design jobs for steel structures used in automotive logistics or for better container utilization purposes.
OUR SOLUTIONS
Kar-Tainer 2-Car CBU Cassette System
Our 2-Car CBU Cassette operates on the same principle as our other CBU systems, allowing for external loading and pre-staging vehicles on cassettes before container loading. Unlike standard expandable wooden skids, which are single-use, our returnable steel equipment offers a lifetime of 10-15 years, providing continuous use for vehicle shipments. This system not only enhances efficiency but also significantly reduces waste and costs associated with single-use skids. Our durable, long-lasting cassettes ensure reliable and sustainable vehicle transportation solutions over many years, making them a superior choice for containerized vehicle shipping.
Kar-Tainer 3-Car CBU Cassette System
Ideal for shipping larger vehicles such as SUVs, MPVs, estates, and bigger sedans, our 3-car CBU system features an external loading, cassette-based design to meet OEM quality standards. This system enhances vehicle safety, reduces loading time, and improves overall quality. Vehicles can be pre-loaded onto cassettes before container loading, which can be done on grounded containers, chassis, or at loading docks. Each 3-car CBU set includes three unique cassettes. The end-cassettes have multiple components, while the central cassette is one piece. Easy to construct and maintain, this system ensures vehicle safety by interlinking base units that keep the cassettes secure without drilling.
Kar-Tainer 4-Car CBU Cassette System
Our 4-car CBU system is perfect for shipping compact cars, hatchbacks, and smaller sedans. This external loaded, cassette-based system meets OEM quality standards, enhancing vehicle safety, reducing loading time, and improving overall quality. Vehicles can be pre-loaded onto cassettes before being loaded into containers, whether grounded, on a chassis, or at a loading dock. Each 4-car system includes two sets of cassettes: one flat and one angled. The angled cassettes have multiple components, while the flat cassettes are single pieces. Easy to construct and maintain, the interlinking base units ensure system integrity and vehicle safety without needing drilling or fastening.
Kar-Tainer 2-Car SKD Cassette System
Our SKD system uses the same base units as our CBU systems, configurable for 3-car or 4-car settings. The main difference is replacing rampways with cross-over bars and fastening bolts to secure vehicle bodies. This system ships either plain bodies or full SKD kits, with all parts packed in the same container. Vehicle bodies can be loaded directly from the assembly line onto SKD cassettes and moved to storage until trucks arrive. This method ensures exterior loading, increased safety, decreased loading time, and added quality. Our returnable SKD cassettes optimize load capacity, reduce costs, lower CO2 emissions, and improve operational efficiency.
Kar-Tainer 3-Car SKD Cassette System
Our SKD system uses the same base units as our CBU systems, configurable for 3-car or 4-car settings. The main difference is replacing rampways with cross-over bars and fastening bolts to secure vehicle bodies. This system ships either plain bodies or full SKD kits, with all parts packed in the same container. Vehicle bodies can be loaded directly from the assembly line onto SKD cassettes and moved to storage until trucks arrive. This method ensures exterior loading, increased safety, decreased loading time, and added quality. Our returnable SKD cassettes optimize load capacity, reduce costs, lower CO2 emissions, and improve operational efficiency.

Kar-Tainer Motorcycle Cassette System
The CBU bike cassette is the latest addition to the KTI transport system range, offering the same benefits and features as the CBU cassette system. Designed primarily for the Southeast Asian market, it facilitates the export of smaller bikes between countries in this region. This system enhances vehicle safety, reduces loading time, and improves overall quality, making it an ideal solution for efficient bike transportation. The CBU bike cassette meets the high standards demanded by the industry while addressing the specific needs of the Southeast Asian export market.
