Dnata brings Dubai screening under one roof

[ December 18, 2025   //   Chris Lewis ]

Dnata has opened a centralised screening control room at its Dubai International airport (DXB) cargo facility, developed in partnership with Dubai Police.

Officers can now remotely operate and monitor six X-ray screening machines across dnata’s warehouse from a single command centre. Each device is connected to One Cargo, dnata’s digital cargo management system.

Previously, screening was conducted at multiple warehouse locations, which was costlier and less efficient. The new centralised approach consolidates all processes into one hub, reducing screening time and improving throughput by around 3% annually.

It also reduces manual touchpoints, enables advanced analytics, and helps reduce unnecessary cargo movement and fuel consumption.

The centralised screening control room is equipped with advanced monitoring interfaces, live imaging, and automated reporting tools that ensure traceability across every stage of the process.
