Made with a combination of composite and aluminium panels, the containers are to be supplied in two customised configurations to tackle the needs of Singapore Airlines Cargo’s passenger and cargo operations.
Bart van Berkel, VP Sales of Zodiac Cabin Equipment, commented on the decision, calling it a “testament to the design philosophy” that Zodiac upholds for all of its products. “We strive towards the lightest tare weight possible for our products, leading the market trend towards lightest weight with highest durability. At the same time, we strictly will not compromise the performance potential of our products. We look forward to a successful collaboration with Singapore Airlines Cargo for many years to come”.
The Herculight S AKE, launched in 2014, has a tare weight starting from as low as 51 kilogrammes with Endumax composite panels, and 65 kilogrammes in the aluminium variety. With a view to providing something for every customer, the Herculight S range also features a series of lightweight pallets.
