AELER’s mission is to accelerate the digital transformation of global freight logistics through structural and digital innovation, improving sustainability and efficiency along the supply chain while providing transparency.
To that end, AELER has created the Unit One, a new generation of smart & green containers. The Unit One, sustainable by design, offers unique structural advantages, which contribute to reduce the energy consumption. It is lighter, more robust and has a higher level of insulation than the traditional steel containers. On top of that, its embedded sensors provide real time visibility and its onboarded intelligence supports the digitalization of logistic processes, while increasing operational efficiency.
Enhancing the Unit One, AELER’s platform offers visibility as well as handling possibilities according to the different stakeholder needs and therefore helps support the smooth flow of containers during their journey.
AELER’s technologies are the result of decades of research. Its team is composed of talented technical and business leaders with a proven track record and has built during the past 3 years the network to make this venture a commercial success.
Overall, AELER’s solutions envision a global perspective along the supply chain, building bridges among the different stakeholders and helping discover synergies for sustainable and efficient logistic operations.
