Father of Containers - Malcolm McLean
Before the invention of containers, the trade and transportation of goods around the world was a slow and difficult process. The loading and unloading of goods rely on a large number of porters. The wharf is crowded from morning to night, and the goods are piled up in the port warehouse for a long time. When the empty ship arrives, the workers will start to move the goods piled up into hills like ants into sacks, barrels, bundles or Flat noodles, and move them to the ship one by one. Delays and blockages in port cargo are common occurrences, sometimes even taking a whole week to load and unload a ship's cargo. It takes both money and time. Such transportation methods were used for centuries until the emergence of Malcom McLean, the father of containers, completely overturned this traditional model.
McLean's contribution was not only the invention of the container itself, but also the creation of the entire container logistics system. Container transportation is a systematic project. Firstly, huge containers cannot be transported by manpower as in the past, so there must be lifting tools such as tower cranes; In addition, efficient and smooth transportation of large quantities of goods also requires a series of links such as ports and warehouses to cooperate with each other. Through continuous exploration and adjustment, McLean not only solved the problem of what to load, but also gradually established a complete container transportation plan.
Containers have achieved astonishing development over a period of time. New types of containers with functions such as refrigeration, heating, or controlled atmosphere preservation (achieved by adjusting the gas composition inside the container) have emerged one after another, which not only further reduces cargo loss but also enriches the categories of goods that can be carried by the container. At the same time, many people have transformed containers into housing, farms, fish ponds, and even shopping centers, and the use of containers is no longer limited to ports and docks, which has greatly increased their scope of use and made human life more convenient.
