IICL code reference

IICL (Institute of International Container Lessors) codes describe container damage. In ContainerHub they power inspections and damage records. Basic structure: component + damage type + location.

IICL components

Damage types

TypeTypical codeDescription
DentDENT, BENT, DEFORMATIONDeformation without penetration.

Scratch / cutCUT, TEAR, SCRATCHSurface cut or paint mark.
HoleHOLEPenetration through material.

Structure: component + type + location

Combine:

  • Component — e.g. LEFT_WALL.
  • Damage type — dent, corrosion, etc.
  • Location (optional) — e.g. S-L, D-R.

Example: Dent on left wall, zone S-L → LEFT_WALL + DENT + S-L.

Using IICL in ContainerHub

On inspections you record damages with these codes. AI-assisted inspection can suggest component, location, and type from photos.
