January 21, 2010  I   HOME  I   CONTACT TRAXON Europe and Cargonaut join forces and launch eCargo Pouch® Dear Sir or Madam , The two cargo community system providers Cargonaut International B. V. based at Amsterdam airport and TRAXON Europe based in Frankfurt (Germany) have signed a cooperation agreement which took effect at the beginning of this year. Jointly they launched the web based central document and message management system eCargo Pouch on January 19th. The new product is designed to fully support the IATA e-freight initiative. At the end of 2009 Felix Keck, Managing Director of TRAXON Europe, and Arno Hoitink, Managing Director of Cargonaut, formally signed a cooperation agreement in Frankfurt (Germany) which took effect with the beginning of this year. "We are pooling our resources to speed up new e-freight product developments. In addition, we try to stay abreast with changes in our industry such as new demand in the areas of security, e-freight or environment and pressure on costs. Together we are much stronger", explained a proud Felix Keck. "Both our companies have the same goals - to provide a top class service to the airfreight industry and to be innovation leaders in this market. I am convinced that together we can more effectively develop and bring to market new e-freight products that accelerate productivity and performance of our customers. Economies of scale are also important in our industry", said Arno Hoitink. Signing the cooperation agreement Left: Arno Hoitink, Managing Director Cargonaut B. V. Right: Felix Keck, Managing Director TRAXON Europe New solution eCargo Pouch® eCargo Pouch®, a central document and message management system, enables creation, archiving and viewing of virtual document pouches which are comparable to the paper pouches that accompany air cargo shipments. Freight forwarders can now file trade and air transport documents, e.g. commercial invoices, certificates of origin, packing lists, air waybills or house air waybills electronically with eCargo Pouch®. "We have made sure that the system is as "user friendly" as possible and will not require extensive training. Forwarders and their partners do not have to invest in any additional hard- or software as eCargo Pouch® functions independently of the company’s own IT systems. Fundamentally all companies in the airfreight industry strive for paperless processes in order to save costs. eCargo Pouch® integrates with already existing processes and thus makes the implementation of e-freight much easier", explained Arno Hoitink. "eCargo Pouch® has considerable environmental benefits, issues that are very close to all our heart. When we reduce our use of paper we support the environment. The system not only stops wastage of precious resources it will also help forwarders and airlines reduce their carbon footprint", said Felix Keck.
