The bins are capable of stacking and provide easy forklift access for quick bulk transportation and storage. Click here for more parachute storage solutions.

Ventilated & Visible Durability

The parachute container storage bins are a result of a series of field tests in an effort to improve parachute storage. One Airborne Division in particular was having trouble with their own parachute storage, which used heavy-gauge wire baskets to store packed parachutes. Normal wear and tear caused the baskets’ metal wires to bend and break, resulting in sharp edges and wires that could snag on or cut the parachute bags. Mud and moisture could also seep through the bottom of the baskets, which caused more damage to parachute bags.

The parachute containers were designed in standard and large sizes with an 11-gauge steel frame and 12-gauge steel diamond-perforated panels on both models. The steel frame provides enhanced strength and rigidity, while the diamond-perforated panels provide visibility and ventilation without sacrificing security. Forklift pockets provide forklift access from all sides, and the base is reinforced to withstand forklift hits. The containers can be stacked up to three units high in static applications or can be mounted on mobile pallet racking to save space and optimize storage.

The parachute containers can accommodate standard or high security padlocks depending on your needs. Options for labeling are also available. The containers are secure but provide easy accessed to authorized users with tops that open on both sides and front and back that fold down for full access on either end. The bins will hold thirty T-11 parachutes and can also accommodate G-11 and G-12 parachutes.
