Abstract

A transport container which is suitable, in particular, for transport on airplanes, should be lightweight and, in addition, assure an absolute safe insulation of the interior of the container against severe climatic changes. This is particularly important when transporting art articles which otherwise could be damaged. In accordance with the invention, such a transport container is so structured that the walls and the lid consist of a plurality of layer zones which are coordinated with each other with respect to their efficiency characteristics--namely, an inner layer zone consisting of a rigid moisture-storing material, a heat-insulating material layer mounted atop the inner layer zone and covered on both sides with a water-impervious foil, a wide mesh-like grid structure which rests on the heat-insulating material layer and forms a plurality of air chambers and an outer wall of the transport container which covers the grid structure.
