Turkish Cargo selects Unilode for ULD repair

Turkish Cargo has appointed Unilode Aviation Solutions for the maintenance and repair of its ULD fleet under a three-year agreement. 

Unilode will repair Turkish Cargo’s standard and heavy-duty pallets, pallet nets, cargo and special containers at 22 locations in Unilode’s EASA and FAA-certified repair network in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas, to complement Turkish Airlines’ in-house repairs in Istanbul, Turkey.

Marc Groenewegen, chief commercial officer and managing director MRO Solutions, Unilode Aviation Solutions, said: “Turkish Cargo’s worldwide destinations overlap with several repair stations owned and operated by Unilode that makes it possible to repair ULDs where the damage occurs to significantly reduce ULD repositioning needs, fuel burn and CO₂ emissions.”
