The events of the last few years have exposed a growing concern over the vulnerability of air cargo to terrorist incidents.
All airfreight now has to comply with government-regulated security requirements.
In the UK, these are regulated by the Aviation and Maritime Security Act 1990. This means that all airfreight consignments must now either be screened or originate from a Department for Transport(DfT) accredited known consignor before being loaded onto an aircraft.
The consignments of accredited companies can then be treated as ‘known cargo’ and not ordinarily subject to other security vetting before being loaded onto the aircraft.
Candy Carriers’ drivers are all fully qualified, having attended the comprehensive Air Cargo Security Training Programme and are certified to carry your ‘known cargo’ consignments directly to the airlines.
Our customers appreciate that their transportation and delivery time is kept to the minimum and that we are available 24/7 to collect directly from them and deliver to airports throughout the UK, adhering to your strict deadlines.
