Who owns EKLU containers
In the Navo24 Carrier Directory, EKLU belongs to ONE, whose SCAC is ONEY. The line's profile, fleet and schedules are on its carrier page.
ONE uses EKLU on its own equipment. Its other prefixes include AKLU, KKFU, KKLU, KKTU, KLFU, KLTU, KPLU, KXTU, MOAU and MOEU.
A prefix tells you who owns the box, not always who books it. ONE also runs leased containers under lessor prefixes, and other lines can carry EKLU boxes on slot or swap deals.
How to read an EKLU container number
Every container number has eleven characters under ISO 6346. The first three letters (EKL) are the owner code registered with the BIC in Paris. The fourth letter is the equipment category: U, freight containers: the dry, reefer, open top, flat rack and tank boxes that travel on ships, trains and trucks.
Then come six serial digits and one check digit. In EKLU1234568, a format example, 123456 is the serial and 8 is the check digit. It is calculated from the first ten characters, so a single mistyped letter or digit almost always shows up as a wrong check digit.
How to track an EKLU container
Enter the full number in the box on this page: EKLU is already filled in, add the seven digits. Navo24 detects ONE from the prefix, reads the line's own events (gate in, loaded, departed, transshipped, discharged) and adds the vessel's live AIS position and an ETA.
If the box is not found, it may not be on an active booking yet, or the digits may be wrong. Try the bill of lading or the booking number instead: they start with the line's code, often ONEY.
