Coolrooms for Temperature-Controlled Air Cargo
Ensure precise temperature conditions for sensitive air cargo
Goods such as pharmaceuticals, perishables and other temperature-sensitive shipments require consistently stable and accurately controlled environments. Our Cool Rooms provide reliable temperature regulation, safeguarding your valuable cargo and ensuring compliance with international quality standards.
Temperature-Controlled ULD Storage with Integrated Rack Design
Lödige Coolrooms are climate-controlled chambers built directly into the ULD storage rack. Available as single- or two-level solutions, each room holds multiple 10 ft or 20 ft ULDs. Every zone can be configured independently, ensuring stable temperatures from +2 °C to +25 °C. Access is secured with sectional and hinged doors, and integration into ETV or TV aisles ensures seamless loading via friction-powered storage decks.
Benefits of Lödige’s Cool Room
Designed for innovative air cargo terminals, our solutions provide measurable benefits by improving efficiency, ensuring safety and supporting seamless process integration.
Built for High-Value and Sensitive Goods
Lödige Coolrooms are used for storing ULDs containing pharmaceutical products, fresh produce, or other temperature-critical shipments. The integration into your ULD storage racks reduces unnecessary movements and ensures safe, energy-efficient storage – all within IATA standards.

Automation Degree
Lödige Cool Rooms support varying levels of automation. They can be accessed manually with forklifts, Cargo Pallet Movers, FlexLoaders or Castor and Ball Decks, using standalone temperature controls. Semi-automated setups link to friction-powered storage decks and terminal systems, with temperature control via EDS.
Fully automated solutions integrate Transfer Vehicles, Elevating Transfer Vehicles or roller conveyors with the Lödige Cargo Professional Suite, providing seamless connection to warehouse management and automation systems for hands-free loading, unloading and storage. This scalability allows operators to adapt from manual retrofits to high-throughput automated systems.

Elevating Transfer Vehicles (ETV) run on rails in storage aisles. They lift and move ULDs safely in high-bay racks, maximising vertical space and throughput.
Transfer Vehicles travel on rails in terminal aisles, linking workstations, storage and cold zones. They move ULDs fast, precise and safely across levels.
Automated Guided Vehicles move ULDs flexibly across the terminal. Scalable, 24/7 available and safe – ideal for efficient cargo flows.
Castor Decks provide effortless multi-directional ULD moves. Flexible, modular and quick to adapt for handling or buffer zones.
The Cargo Pallet Mover transports ULDs placed on ULD Support Pallets with precision. Battery-powered, agile and precise – perfect for peak handling.
FlexLoader lifts and transfers ULDs flexibly between levels. A compact all-in-one device that boosts handling efficiency in tight spaces.
Ball Decks let staff shift ULDs freely in any direction. Simple, modular and effective for manual handling in build & break areas.
