Frequently Asked Questions

We keep all ConFoot products in stock and ready to be shipped immediately. Our products are kept in the factory warehouse, and in addition our dealers maintain their own inventories to ensure quick delivery times.

If the ground is soft, such as gravel, loose soil, or asphalt that softens in hot weather, steel or wooden plates can be placed under the legs to help distribute the weight and prevent sinking.

  • CF, CFP, and CFL legs: These models have no mechanisms or functional parts that require regular maintenance or inspections. If there are visible changes or damage, photos should be sent to Confoot for evaluation to determine if the legs can still be used or if they need to be replaced.
  • CFU legs: These require regular inspections. Detailed instructions are provided in the user manual.

All ConFoot leg models are sold and used in sets of four:

  • CF set: 4 CF legs
  • CFP set: 2 CFP legs and 2 CF legs
  • CFU set: 4 CFU legs
  • CF and CFL models: 34 tons
  • CFP model: 30 tons
  • CFU model: 20 tons

Coming soon: a new 30-ton CFU model, designed to handle even heavier loads. We can also customize Confoot legs to meet specific customer requirements. Contact us for more information about tailor-made solutions.

When using the CFP model with a loading dock, the container must be secured to the dock with chains, straps, or other available methods. Once secured, it is safe to use a forklift for loading or unloading.

  • CFU legs: CE-certified
  • Other models: These have applicable certifications but are not CE-marked, as CE certification is typically issued for standardized product categories. ConFoot’s other models are unique and have their own specific certifications.

Wind resistance documentation is included with the product. A detailed graph on the last page of the extended report illustrates how wind resistance increases as the container’s total weight increases.
