Mar 12, 2012 (newstodate): Supplier of air cargo ULD and ULD repair services to the commercial aviation industry, the Norwegian company Nordisk Aviation Products has landed a significant order from Emirates Airline.
Under a new contract, Nordisk will deliver close to 6,000 Nordisk UltraLite AKE (LD3) and Nordisk TwinLite AKE (LD3) containers to Emirates SkyCargo.
Deliveries will be completed over the coming three years.
As part of Emirates' fuel and emission saving program, the carrier has opted for Nordisks *Lite container series at only 56 kg that are the lightest alternative in the market.
With the delivery of this new order, 50 percent of Emirates' AKE fleet will be lower tare weight composite panel containers, and these will play an important role in optimizing payload especially on the carrier's ultra long range flights.
Nordisks *Lite product line, Nordisk's second generation of lightweight containers, includes the Nordisk UltraLite, the Worlds first certified LD3 container weighing 55 kg, the Nordisk TwinLite and Nordisk AluLite.
