Delta Cargo has approved the Envirotainer Releye RLP for usage on its fleet of aircrafts.
With this approval, the airline can now transport the Releye RLP on its global network, increasing its capacity to meet the growing market for secure cold chain products for the air transportation of pharmaceuticals.
The company claims the Releye delivers up to 90% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to available passive solutions, based on life-cycle analysis. The product uses rechargeable batteries to power its electric heating and compressor cooling system and can power its system for over 170 hours on a single charge.
