Roll Container Market Summary
Introduction to the Roll Container Industry
Roll containers, also known as cargo trolleys or cage carts, are versatile, wheeled metal structures used for material handling in logistics, retailing, and manufacturing. Constructed from upstream raw materials like iron pipes, wires, and plates, these containers are designed for durability and ease of movement, making them essential for large-scale supermarket distribution and factory process turnover. The market is driven by the retailing industry, which accounts for 60–65% of demand, followed by logistics (20–25%) and manufacturing (10–15%). The industry is moderately fragmented, with European players like Wanzl and Provost leading due to their advanced designs, such as collapsible and stackable containers. Innovations focus on lightweight materials, ergonomic designs, and sustainability, with 3-panel containers gaining traction for accessibility. Challenges include raw material price volatility, intense competition, and high logistics costs, yet the rise of e-commerce and warehouse automation fuels growth.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
