Challenge Group has announced the launch of its latest innovation at its hub in Liège - an exclusive engine dolly designed for the safe transport of aircraft engines directly from the offloading point to the aircraft door.

David Canavan, Challenge Group COO, stated “This innovative engine dolly significantly enhances our operational capabilities, giving us a distinct edge over the competition. By ensuring the safe and efficient transport of aircraft engines directly from the offloading point to the aircraft door, we not only streamline our processes but also minimize risks associated with warehouse and tarmac vibrations”.

This equipment is designed to ensure the safe and secure handling of aircraft engines. We are dedicated to providing our business partners with a seamless experience, prioritizing both the efficiency and integrity of their valuable cargo every step of the way.", Or Zak, Challenge Group CCO, added.
