Etihad starts using green containers
DUBAI - Etihad Airways, along with its Unit Load Device, or ULD, partner Jettainer, has embarked on a program to replace 3,000 containers from the original aluminium ULD fleet with environmentally friendly lightweight versions.
The new lightweight containers are manufactured from a range of composite materials including Kevlar, the material used in making bullet-proof jackets.
This composite is tougher and much lighter with an average weight saving of 17kg per ULD or over 200kgs per average wide-bodied flight. This significant weight reduction will lower fuel consumption, costs and CO2 emissions. It is estimated that the implementation of the new containers will cut emissions by approximately 5,000 tonnes in 2012.
