In the summer of 2021, Aeler Technologies unveiled its breakthrough smart shipping container<\/a> that drastically reduces both operational costs and CO2 emissions.<\/p>\n

The company has now raised raised CHF 7 million in an over-subscribed Pre-Series A financing round. Backers include financing specialists Decisive<\/a>, MACV, Tiger8, Virtual Network<\/a> and well-known names like AA Sons<\/a> (optician family Afflelou) as well as logistics industry heavyweights.<\/p>\n

Co-CEO David Baur said: \u201cThe logistics industry is ripe for a new technological breakthrough. With the Aeler container, we are reworking the very foundations of this trillion-dollar industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aeler\u2019s UNIT ONE<\/a> container is light, robust, insulated, smart and can hold more payload too. It\u2019s designed to replace the 60-year-old steel shipping container that\u2019s at the core of this industry.<\/p>\n

The Solar Impulse label and numerous key benefits<\/h4>\n

According to Aeler Technologies, the key benefits of the UNIT ONE container are a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions thanks to its additional payload and aerodynamic design, 11% more storage volume (up to 17% for flexitanks) thanks to the container\u2019s flat insides, as well as drastic reductions in temperature variations thanks to the container\u2019s structural insulation. This offers a real alternative to \u2018reefers\u2019 (energy-hungry refrigerated containers) for sensitive goods.<\/p>\n

This funding was received to meet rapidly growing demand for Aeler\u2019s new generation container and expand its Container As A Service (CAAS), an innovative subscription-based model that gives customers timely and flexible access to Aeler\u2019s containers.<\/p>\n

Solar Impulse<\/a>‘s world-renowned explorer and pioneer in clean technologies Bertrand Piccard said: \u201cThe Solar Impulse Label exists to show governments and business leaders that solutions that are good for the environment represent the biggest market opportunity of our century. We labeled Aeler back in 2019<\/a> and this investment confirms that investors see Aeler\u2019s potential too.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
