Its temperature-controlled containers will be repaired at Unilode’s EASA and FAA-certified repair stations, initially in the UK with further locations being added at later dates.
Unilode will also equip Skycooler’s containers with digital tags for increased supply chain visibility.
Jorgen Veslov, CEO of Skycooler says: “Our repair agreement with Unilode will allow us to guarantee quick turnaround times of three to seven business days to our customers. Additionally, Unilode’s digital container tags, reader network and customer dashboard will provide Skycooler with real-time fleet visibility. Unilode will ensure consistent repair quality, compliance and transparency, and we look forward to our long-term partnership.”
Marc Groenewegen, Chief Commercial Officer and Managing Director MRO Solutions of Unilode says: “Our new 10-year agreement includes both our repair and digital services as Skycooler has recognised the benefits that Unilode’s digital ULD tags with geolocation and various sensor capabilities can provide for its temperature-controlled container fleet. This reflects and confirms the aviation market’s acceptance of Unilode’s digital technology and proves the versatility of our digital solutions that can be used for standard and special ULDs, such as temperature-controlled containers.”
