Prefix
NISU
Owner or operator
Technopyr SA

The four-letter prefix NISU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Technopyr SA.

A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.

Use the CargoEnter container validator to check the number structure before starting shipment tracking.

NISU container number format

A container number starting with NISU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example NISU1234567.

Who uses NISU containers

NISU is registered to Technopyr SA. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
