The new contract includes maintenance of the first material handling system installed by Lödige Industries in Asia in 1979. This system is now being upgraded for continued optimal performance. The maintenance scope also covers the automatic cargo handling system (ACHS), pallet cargo handling system (PCHS), and mechanical systems in the cool chain facility and the perishable terminal. Lödige Industries is also developing solutions that will further enhance the cargo facility at dnata.

“With this critical service, we will ensure that our cargo handling systems are ready for long-term operation, enabling us to handle growing cargo volumes and maintain the high quality standards required by our customers,” said Sam Gould, head of cargo at dnata Singapore.

In addition to supplying comprehensive, customised, high-standard systems and equipment, Lödige Industries prioritises the maintenance of existing systems. “Maintaining a fundamentally functioning system of good quality and adapting it to new challenges through upgrades can be the most effective solution in this case. We are very pleased to support dnata once again,” said Ranga Jayaweera, general manager for Singapore, for Lödige Industries.

Lödige Industries’ previous projects for dnata in Singapore include the equipping of their perishable centre, implementing an elevating transfer vehicle (ETV) system and the provision of equipment including A&A and E&M works prior to underpinning.
