Air Canada– Press Release

Unilode Aviation Solutions, OnAsset Intelligence and Air Canada are strengthening their business relationship through a unique collaborative agreement to share data and digital infrastructure to redefine how ULDs move through the global airfreight network.

The collaboration between the three companies represents a pivotal advancement in the air cargo sector. By combining Air Canada’s airline operations with OnAsset’s aviation-compliant digital tracking and monitoring solutions and Unilode’s global IoT network and fully digitized ULD fleet, the companies intend to create an interoperable offering to seamlessly capture true end-to-end data. Unilode and OnAsset have established a global network comprising thousands of readers across airports worldwide. Air Canada and OnAsset have also collaborated to deploy comprehensive network coverage at Air Canada cargo warehouses and airport locations, and Air Canada’s entire aircraft fleet, which is an industry first. The parties are now working together to share this established infrastructure and the rich data it produces to enable end-to-end visibility for Unit Load Devices (ULDs).

This strategic collaboration paves the way for many other use cases geared towards real-time insights and increased visibility for customers.

Janet Wallace, Managing Director, Cargo Operations and Transformation at Air Canada Cargo, said,

“Our customers want more control, more transparency, and more confidence in how their cargo is handled. With this combined relationship, we’re delivering a smarter cargo experience from start to finish. This isn’t just an operational improvement—it’s a leap forward for the industry.”

Unilode Chief Executive Officer, Ross Marino added,

“By aligning operational strategy with data intelligence, we’re enabling a smarter, more efficient cargo network. Until today, the ability to track and measure real-time performance allows us to deliver services and data insights that have not been possible until now.”
