Fireproof ULDs go into Lufthansa service
[ July 6, 2023 // Chris Lewis ]
Airfreight container operator Jettainer has put the first fully certified fire-resistant containers into service with Lufthansa Cargo. The AMX containers are manufactured by US-based Satco and are certified in accordance with the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA)‘s latest Technical Standard Orders (TSO) C90e specifications. They can contain a fire for up to six hours, making them the safest certified ULDs on the market, says Jettainer. Lufthansa Cargo will be the first Jettainer customer to use then and has been providing the carrier with 50 of these containers for this purpose since the beginning of June. Jettainer adds that the Satco containers are made of sustainable materials and are lighter, durable, and long-lasting.
