When does the AELER IoT device stream data?

The container's IoT device seeks a cellular connection every two hours to transmit collected data. In the case of significant events or "alerts," the device will immediately search for a connection to relay the information promptly, ensuring timely monitoring and intervention if necessary.

Who is responsible for the maintenance, repair, and cleaning of AELER containers?

In accordance with industry standards, all containers must undergo cleaning before their return to the depot. Should there be a necessity for standard or chemical cleaning, AELER's depots will undertake this process, with any incurred additional costs being charged to the customer. AELER or its authorised depots will conduct any necessary repairs.

Are AELER containers certified?

Yes, the AELER Unit One containers are certified for standard ISO GP (General Purpose) use, including CSC (International Convention for Safe Containers) and ISO certifications. A CE certification is also in progress, ensuring the container meets high safety and quality standards.

Do shipping lines accept AELER containers?

Yes, the AELER Unit One container—a certified 20-ft dry container—is fully compatible with existing maritime container handling equipment and is accepted by shipping lines under Shippers Owned Container (SOC) conditions.

How do AELER containers offer better insulation?

The AELER Unit One's exceptional insulation is due to its construction from composite panels. This design ensures that the container's contents are protected against significant temperature variations without requiring single-use plastic as additional insulation layers, making it highly efficient for transporting temperature-sensitive goods.
