HONG KONG's cathay Pacific Cargo now offers a new container that provides greater load flexibility and latest cool-chain technology, according to its press release.
'Cathay pacific is delighted to be the first Asian carrier to approve the new envirotainer Releye rlp container unit,' said Cathay Cargo manager Frosti Lau.
'It will allow us to offer yet more choice to our customers for transporting temperature sensitive shipments: which is especially important at this moment, when vaccines and other life-saving pharmaceutical shipments are in such critical demand in different parts of the world.'
It is the latest of the company's to its extensive cool-chain options by being the first Asian air-cargo carrier to offer the Envirotainer releye RLP for carriage on its aircraft fleet.
The Envirotainer Releye RLP is an LD11-sized unit with a unique air flow technology for maximum temperature stability, and has been designed to meet shippers' requests for greater load flexibility.
The RLP-size container fits three Euro pallets (or two-US pallets) and fills a strategic gap between the larger RAP and smaller RKN-size containers to enable mixing and matching of pallet sizes based on shipment volume.
The unit uses rechargeable batteries to power its electric heating and compressor cooling system, which can be controlled from an external panel. A single battery charge will power the system for more than 170 hours. The Releye RLP also offers fully integrated live monitoring.
Said Envirotainer key accounts chief Don Harrison: 'Cathay Pacific Cargo is a long-term partner to Envirotainer, and I'm thrilled that it is the quickest airline in Asia-Pacific to qualify our latest innovation.'
