IATA Unit Load Device Regulations
Details
Abstract: Unit Load Devices (ULDs) are the air freight version of shipping containers. While their size is standard, the methods of ULD handling, storage, and transport and not. As a result, ULDs are also the leading cause of aircraft damage on the ground. To help reduce the $400M annual repair bill and knock-on effects of cancellations and delays, IATA put together a set of handling regulations, specifically for ULDs. This resource covers technical and operational responsibilities, airline requirements, and design and manufacturing specifications.
