Emirates SkyCargo's role grows in temperature-sensitive air freight
EMIRATES SkyCargo transported more than 313,000 tonnes of time- and temperature-sensitive goods across its network through its Cool Chain services last year.
Perishable products such as fruit, vegetables, flowers and fresh meat from Africa and chilled meat from Australia, as well as pharmaceuticals from India are shipped by Emirates, reports Atlanta area Air Cargo World.
Emirates SkyCargo's perishable handling capacity has expanded with the recent opening of the freighter terminal at Dubai World Central's Al Maktoum International Airport where it handles 140,000 tonnes a year.
"We take pride in providing controlled facilities. Our intricate process boosts the life of perishables by preserving the cool chain throughout the journey," said Emirates vice president Moaza Al Falahi.
"Using innovative products such as active temperature controlled containers, warehouses, cool dollies and white covers, we're at the forefront," he said.
Emirates SkyCargo's range of techniques for transporting perishable products includes Cool Chain Premium, Cool Chain Advanced and Cool Chain Basic.
Cool Chain Premium is designed to move health care products, and offers active temperature-controlled containers, priority ground handling, cool dollies, temperature controlled handling and storage.
