Lödige Industries named World Market Leader 2026 for Air Cargo Terminals
Lödige Industries has once again reinforced its position as a globally leading provider of air cargo terminal technology. The internationally active company has been listed multiple times in the World Market Leaders index of WirtschaftsWoche. For decades, Lödige Industries’ machines, IT systems and automation solutions have ensured maximum efficiency, safety and reliability at the world’s largest air cargo hubs. Today, nearly every second ton of air cargo worldwide is handled using Lödige technology.
With the dynamic growth of e-commerce, air cargo operators face the challenge of managing increasing volumes with limited space and a shortage of skilled personnel. Lödige Industries meets these demands with state-of-the-art automation solutions that optimise processes, reduce operating costs and scale capacities flexibly.
Fully automated high-bay warehouses, intelligent conveyor systems, ergonomically integrated packing stations and autonomous transport vehicles enable consistently efficient material flow throughout cargo terminals. Integrated IT systems precisely control all processes and ensure the highest quality and safety standards. From New York to Hong Kong, Lödige Industries guarantees the smooth handling of around 29 million tons of air cargo per year for its customers. A new project in Abu Dhabi will further increase this volume in the near future.
“We are delighted to be recognised once again as a world market leader,” said Philippe De Backer, CEO of Lödige Industries. “This is not only a success for us, but above all for our customers, who remain competitive long-term with our solutions. Our technologies are designed to master complex logistical challenges and to adapt flexibly, scalably and reliably to changing requirements.” De Backer added: “We see ourselves as a partner to our customers, delivering not just technology, but shaping the future of logistics together with them.”
