40-Foot Container Chassis Market Analysis

Regulatory bodies and regulations such as the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), container safety certificate (CSC), and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) have a strong influence on the manufacturing and sale of container chassis. In February 2021, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) enforced its Intermodal Chassis rule that requires intermodal equipment providers (IEPs), motor carriers, and drivers to share responsibility for the safety of intermodal equipment used on highways. Further, government investments in highway and road infrastructure to enhance the quality of roads, railroads, ports, and air transport are anticipated to trigger the demand for container chassis in the coming years. An improved transportation infrastructure would boost logistics operations in the commercial and industrial sectors, thereby aiding in the secure and timely delivery of goods and services. In March 2023, the provincial government of Newfoundland and Labrador announced an investment of ~US$ 1.4 billion to enhance road and highway transportation infrastructure over the next five years. In March 2023, the UK government announced plans of investing ~US$ 43.50 (£ 40) billion in transformational transport schemes across the country over the next two years. 40-foot container chassis are used in various commercial and industrial transportation. Thus, government investments to boost the commercial and industrial segments of economies by improving road and highway infrastructure are projected to offer promising growth opportunities for the 40-foot container chassis market during the forecast period.

40-Foot Container Chassis Market Overview

The 40-foot container chassis market is generally used by intermodal equipment providers (IEP), shipping lines, and motor carriers, which involves regional and local movement of containers by trucks. Chassis is used for moving containers from loading areas to the yard, as well as to yard storage areas, at terminals.

40-Foot Container Chassis Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rise in Trading Operations Across World

According to the World Trade Organization (WTO), in 2022, world trade has increased by an annual average of 4% in terms of volume and 6% in terms of value since 1995. Globalization has been one of the primary reasons for the growth in world trade. A resultant upsurge in the demand for shipping goods drives the need for container chassis to transport 40-foot containers. Further, the use of these chassis is not limited to transferring goods by sea and land. They are also used for the intermodal transfer of containers via different modes of transportation, such as ships, trains, and trucks. Thus, the continuously growing trade activities across the world bolster the growth of the 40-foot container chassis market.

Integration of Modern Technologies in Chassis

The integration of IoT in chassis systems has facilitated strong connectivity between the chassis and other components of a supply chain, leading to enhanced visibility and real-time tracking of cargo on phones or computers. IoT is likely to be extrapolated in a these chassis to enhance its efficiency. Moreover, advanced technologies such as telematics is perceived to have various benefits when integrated with intermodal chassis. Telematics can keep personnel updated by offering information on chassis departure and arriaval, which would resolve billing disputes and prevent theft occurrences. It also assists in better management of supply chains and freight networks.
