PCT No. PCT/GB93/02068 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 10, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 10, 1996 PCT Filed Oct. 5, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO95/03237 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 2, 1995A freight container of generally cuboidal shape includes a pair of sides which define lateral extremities of the container and extend between ends of the container. The exterior surfaces of the pair of sides are spaced apart by a greater distance along their middle portions than along their end portions which are joined to the ends of the container, whereby the overall exterior width of the container is less at the end portions than at the middle portions. The internal width measured between the middle portions of the sides is more than 2400 mm but the overall thickness of each of the middle portions of the sides is less than 25 mm and the overall exterior width measured at the middle portions of the sides is less than 2470 mm. The container therefore has increased capacity for a given size of each end and is able to be located side-by-side with conventional container./!
