CAA-regulated facility
Heli and air freight SPX screening
Off-airport screening could reduce your screening-related costs by over 30% and give you more control over timing.
At ASCO, we provide heli and air freight SPX screening at our CAA-regulated facility less than a mile from the airport, screening and securing cargo to strict CAA and DfT standards.
Delays, availability, and screening charges all stack up. With our own fleet, we collect, screen, secure and deliver directly to the airline so it's ready to fly without additional screening at airports or heliports with no third-party handovers and minimal delay.
- 30%+ cost saving
- Faster airport handling
- Shorter transit times
