ADLC

ADLC, short for A Drone Logistics Company, offers express cargo transport by drone from Belgium. It aims to make company logistics faster, better linked to existing systems and lower in emissions. The company also works in Asia and has an office in Singapore.

Its service has three parts. The first is instant delivery, which is smart logistics using fast, integrated and low emissions drone transport. The second is an aircraft agnostic approach. ADLC picks the most suitable aircraft for each cargo from a mixed fleet. The third is the ADLC Portal, a software platform for managing products and transport, so that customers keep full control over their deliveries.

The company puts safety first and builds on aviation experience. It says its team follows strict standards and procedures to keep operations sound. It also says it uses the best available technology to match each customer's use case.

ADLC reports several firsts. It opened what it calls Belgium's first Advanced Air Mobility cargo drone hub. It has flown night-time cargo drone deliveries. It runs the first drone delivery service across the Scheldt River. It has also obtained a Light UAS Operator Certificate, which it says is the first to include the transport of dangerous goods such as petrochemicals.

In Singapore, ADLC flew a full terminal-to-mainland cargo drone mission over the sea. It showed how petroleum samples can move safely from a terminal to the mainland by drone. The company also works with TRANSRAD on radiopharmaceutical transport, and one of its flights carried the first stone of BlueChem PORT.

ADLC takes part in industry events and public projects. It was selected for the City of Antwerp's Call for Innovations and was a showcased use case in the 5G and 6G NTN Hub Belgium. It has demonstrated at the Port of Rotterdam and at events in Hamburg and Valencia. It also has a country manager for Spain.
