“We have achieved a major milestone by becoming the first MRO in India to receive Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) CAR 145 approval for Unit Load Devices (ULD) and Pallets,” the company said in a statement.

Anshul Bhargava, Managing Director and CEO of Haveus Aerotech, said, “We have received this approval for our recently-expanded Delhi facility as of now, very soon we will try and get the DGCA approval for the Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Kolkata facilities too.”

A Unit Load Device is a removable aircraft part, such as a pallet and net combination or a container, that holds cargo, baggage, or mail. These devices are critical for flight safety as they restrain loads and protect the aircraft structure and systems during flight.

The design, testing, manufacturing, operation, maintenance, and repair of ULDs must comply with stringent safety and airworthiness standards enforced by civil aviation authorities.

In addition to expanding its Delhi facility, Haveus Aerotech recently commissioned a spare parts warehouse near Bengaluru airport, further strengthening its capabilities in the aviation maintenance sector.
