Lödige automates Paris perishables centre

[ October 15, 2026   //   ]

Air France KLM Martinair Cargo is expanding and automating its perishables centre at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport with an elevating transfer vehicle from Lödige Industries for automated multilevel storage and retrieval of ULDs and pallets.

The system reduces manual handling, streamlines internal cargo flows and makes efficient use of capacity. It also supports reliable handling processes for temperature-sensitive shipments within the facility’s dedicated cool areas.

The installation comprises a 10-ft wide edge ETV serving a total of 58 storage decks, including 17 located within temperature-controlled areas.

The system is scheduled to become operational at the end of September 2027.
