Aramid reinforced MACRO-Lite air freight container - 1

High-performance composite ULDs The sky's the limit with Twaron Since 2006, Alabama-based MACRO Industries, Inc. has been developing MACRO-Lite, which are sturdy, impact-resistant composite panels for unit load devices (ULDs). MACRO-Lite leverages the high-performance properties of Teijin Aramid's Twaron and MACRO Industries' proprietary resin, allowing air freight containers to weigh less, meet higher safety standards, require fewer repairs, and have a lower environmental impact. Thanks to the durability of MACRO-Lite panels, they also provide a cost-effective solution for ULDs. Key benefits when using Twaron in ULDs • Higher impact resistance • Lower weight and environmental impact • Increased fire and heat resistance • Longer product lifetimes • Compliant with higher regulatory standards Twaron® The power of Aramid

An easy-to-use composite technology MACRO Industries’ proprietary resin technology and Teijin Aramid’s Twaron fiber are bound together using high-pressure impregnation, creating a tough woven sheet that significantly improves the performance of ULDs. Because it is produced in sheets, MACRO-Lite can be easily used as a replacement for existing aluminum panels in operational ULDs (as with aluminum panels, MACRO-Lite panels are held in place with rivets and bolts), or to build new composite containers. This allows fleet operators to easily upgrade their containers with little impact on the...
