Another flexible air freight container
After introducing inflatable AKE containers, VRR, a global leader in innovative ULD solutions, has announced the launch of the world’s first ever fully certified collapsible main deck container for the B737F and B757F, aircraft models which are most impacted by the imbalance due to increased traffic and the rise of e-commerce. MD Geert van Riemsdijk: "The collapsible AAY container is the answer to this global imbalance."
Weighing in at approximately 280 kg (617 lbs), the collapsible AAY container can be erected and collapsed by two people in two minutes. When folded, the container is seven times smaller, and has a height of 255 mm (10”). The units can be stacked up to four high on the B737F main deck, and six high on the lower deck of a wide-body aircraft. On ground, they can be stored up to six high. (ah)
