Engeniering an integral part of our work aimed on
improvement of container constructions
and infrastructure of transportation &
consumption at consignee site to face
the interests of the client completely.

Handling We provide service supervision and

support to our customers in order to
choose and control the most effective
way of handling the cargo to reach
efficiency and safety.

Maintaince The last stage of the chain is the

maintaince of MK-14-10 fleet, that

“New Technology in Transportation” has

been a member of the International
Dangerous Goods and Containers
Association since 2007.
Experts from “New Technology in
Transportation” and IDGCA jointly
developed and presented more then
200 official and information
documents to different Sessions of
the UN Sub-Committee of European
Agreement for International Carriage
of Dangerous Goods (ADR) and
profile Sub-Committeis on all types
of transport of UNECE.

Experts of “New Technology in Transportation” annually improve their

qualification at seminars, which are organized by IDGCA.

Non-commercial partnership IDGCA was established on the 16th of August,

2001. IDGCA was organized by several organizations, interested in the
creation of a permanent working structure, ensuring the links between
administration, international organizations and business.

Activities IDGCA are aimed at raising of the efficiency and the safety of the
transportation of dangerous goods from door to door. At the same time
IDGCA bases its policy on knowledge and the multiple application of
international regulations, standards, rules and recommendations that allow
the use the international knowledge and practices of sphere of multimodal
shipments of dangerous cargoes and containers.

In 2004 Sub-Committee of Experts of UNECE for transportation of

dangerous cargoes awards to IDGCA consultative status. IDGCA is the only
non-governmental organization in Eastern Europe to have such a status.
Since that time the Experts of the Association and its members have been

 Research & Testing

FBC MK-14-10 has 5 different

constructions, which conforms to the
tasks of transportation of various cargoes.
As the list of products becomes wider we
constantly keep working on improving
characteristics of the container, updating it
to the needs of the client.

During this years we have made drop,

topple and righting, tear, stacking and top-
lift tests with authorized research and
testing institutions.

Recently we have made tests with Krylov

State Research Center* on basis of
methodology explained in IMAN 31-406-14
MI “Soft containers. Topple, Righting, Tear
and Stacking Tests of Container MK-14-10.
Test Methodology” and IMAN 31-258-00 MI
“Soft containers. Strength Characteristics.

experts from the Central Scientific
Research Institute of the Marine Fleet

• Container topple-righting test

• Container under load 28 tf, tear testing
• Container under load 14 tf, tear testing
• Test of vehicle with FBC MK-14-10 for resistance to overturning

Also we had made the test of vehicle KAMAZ-65115 with FBC MK-14-10
(BK3) for the resistance to overturning. This test was held on base of
Research Center for Testing and Refining Automotive Vehicles
(NICIAMT) for compliance with Instructions of Regulations of UNECE
No. 111-00 (www.avtorc.ru).

CONCLUSIONS:
The test results showed the possibility for heavy BK3 containers (up to
14 tones in weight) to be used in bulk multimodal transport (by road,
railroad, maritime and inland transportation).
