Additional Information

The Stewart GX 18-36C Livestock Container has been developed to provide a robust, lightweight and hygienic livestock transport solution suitable for modern farming and livestock operations.

Manufactured almost entirely from aluminium, the container offers significant advantages over conventional steel designs, including:

• Reduced overall weight
• Increased payload capacity
• Excellent corrosion resistance
• Lower maintenance requirements
• Long service life

The container features a fully welded construction, with pressed aluminium side sheets welded directly to box section support posts positioned at approximately 1150mm intervals. The floor is also welded completely around its perimeter.

This fully welded design provides several important benefits:

• Increased structural strength
• Improved durability
• Enhanced biosecurity
• Prevention of effluent leakage
• Easier cleaning and maintenance

By preventing liquids from escaping through joints or floor sections, the container helps maintain cleaner transport conditions while reducing contamination risks.

Cattle Transport Configuration

For cattle transport, the container is fitted with:

• Roof-level ventilation system
• Fixed-position dividing doors with slam-shut catches
• Optional movable partition doors
• Secure livestock handling layout

The roof-mounted ventilation helps maintain airflow throughout the container, supporting animal welfare during transportation.

Sheep Transport Configuration

When configured for sheep transport, the container can be fitted with folding aluminium sheep decks designed to maximise carrying capacity while maintaining ease of operation.

Features include:

• Full-length folding sheep decks
• Aluminium deck supports
• Pressed deck construction to minimise leakage
• Integrated sheep and cattle handling systems
• Efficient stock management layout

A particularly useful feature is the hydraulically operated rear run-up ramp, which provides access to the upper sheep deck while simplifying loading and unloading procedures.

The sheep access doors are integrated within the cattle division system, creating a practical and efficient livestock handling arrangement.

Benefits of the GX 18-36C Livestock Container include:

• Excellent livestock welfare
• Increased payload efficiency
• Reduced vehicle weight
• Improved hygiene standards
• Easy cleaning and maintenance
• Long-term durability

The container is ideally suited to:

• Beef producers
• Sheep farmers
• Livestock hauliers
• Mixed farming enterprises
