In everyday use, roll containers regularly have to be transported or stored empty. Instead of screwing the side rails firmly in place, as is the case with standard roller containers on the market, the rails on the Walther roller container can be released using a pedal and stacked safely and easily.

„The volume of the reusable transport solutions is reduced by up to 76 per cent, which means that the roll containers can be transported particularly efficiently when unloaded. No other roll container can be compacted so much. With our roll container, we want to make the transport of goods easier and more sustainable. The fact that we have now also won the Red Dot Award for this development makes us very proud and spurs us on to continue in the same way and to keep developing our products further.“
