Emirates to Develop New Product for Temperature Sensitive Cargo Shipment
Posted on: Thursday, 21 August 2008, 12:01 CDT
Emirates SkyCargo, a division of Emirates Airline, has teamed up with a US-based research institute to develop a new product for the shipment of temperature sensitive cargo.
The airline said that the new product is a light weight, breathable and reusable protective white cover designed to shield these shipments from heat during door to door transport.
With its hub in the hot climates of the Middle East, Emirates SkyCargo has always had to pay special attention to its temperature sensitive traffic.
Therese Puetz, manager of cargo business development and projects at Emirates, said: "This is the first time this unique type of protection which completely encloses the shipment has been used for the air freight of temperature sensitive goods. It works on the principle of solar radiation and offers significant thermal protection."
