Explore our premium grade heavy-duty pallet and container dollies configured for regional logistics hubs and runway operations.
Founded in 2006, Shanghai Chidge Industries Co., Ltd. has committed to manufacturing and supplying a comprehensive range of aviation ground support equipment (GSE) for over two decades. We deliver exceptionally reliable logistics, industrial, and airport terminal solutions to airlines, regional airports, transport networks, and logistics companies worldwide.
We play a vital role in the material handling and aviation ground equipment industry, specializing in both powered and unpowered equipment. Our non-powered fleet includes heavy-duty cargo trailers, air cargo pallet dollies, container dollies, and baggage carts. On the powered spectrum, we offer top-tier towing tractors, high-payload lifting platform vehicles, baggage conveyor systems, catering trucks, water service vehicles, and dedicated power supply units designed for uninterrupted performance.
Driven by tech-innovation, rigorous quality controls, and a customer-first post-sales commitment, Chidge continuously expands its manufacturing capabilities to satisfy the dynamic requirements of regional economic zones like Rajshahi, ensuring swift international delivery and compliance with standard aviation safety protocols.
From initial design optimization to custom manufacturing, our engineers utilize high-grade steel, hot-dip galvanization coatings, and precision braking assemblies to ensure our GSE fleet withstands harsh industrial and meteorological environments.
Understanding the infrastructural growth and material handling challenges within Bangladesh's key agricultural and industrial corridor.
Rajshahi Division, located in western Bangladesh, is undergoing a pivotal transformation from an agrarian economy into an integrated regional industrial hub. With infrastructural initiatives focusing on upgrading the Shah Makhdum Airport in Rajshahi and expanding the BSCIC Industrial Estates, the region is witnessing a rapid surge in domestic and cross-border trade. This economic boom drives an immediate demand for efficient material handling systems. The traditional, manual cargo handling practices are fast giving way to mechanization, calling for rugged, high-capacity dollies and container trailers to sustain swift transport loops.
As flight frequencies and regional cargo volumes grow, airport operators and logistics contractors require GSE that guarantees structural safety and minimized operational downtime. The damp monsoon weather of Rajshahi dictates that equipment must feature heavy-duty corrosion protection. Standard painted dollies suffer fast paint degradation and structural rusting in high-humidity zones. Shanghai Chidge Industries resolves this challenge by utilizing hot-dip galvanized steel frames and weather-resistant polyurethane rollers, assuring a maintenance-free lifespan even under severe industrial conditions.
Global procurement directors face the challenge of matching high-end design requirements with localized deployment constraints. Our manufacturing setup serves this gap by supplying dollies engineered to maneuver easily through narrow airport aprons and rugged factory floors. Utilizing advanced structural finite element analysis (FEA), we ensure that safety factors are double the nominal capacity of all castor assemblies, tow bars, and locking pins, providing peace of mind to ground operators.

A closer look at the advanced manufacturing processes that define Chidge Industries GSE dollies.
Our engineering matrix focuses on three primary design criteria: Structural Longevity, Operational Ergonomics, and Fail-Safe Operations.
| Feature | Standard Specifications | Operational Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Main Frame Material | Q345B High-Tensile Structural Carbon Steel | Optimized strength-to-weight ratio; prevents deformation under heavy impact. |
| Surface Coating | Hot-Dip Galvanization to ISO 1461 (>85μm thickness) | Long-term protection against atmospheric corrosion and monsoon humidity. |
| Towing & Brake System | Interlocking Towbar-Activated Parking Brake | Automatic braking when the towbar is raised (parked position) or dropped. |
| Castors & Tyres | Heavy-duty Solid Rubber or Polyurethane-coated Steel Wheels | Smooth rolling, low tractive resistance, and flat-free reliability. |
Every Dolly model we engineer complies fully with the latest international guidelines set by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Airport Handling Manual (AHM), including IATA AHM 910 (Basic Requirements for GSE), AHM 913 (Safety Standards), and AHM 968 (Functional Specifications for Cargo Pallet/Container Dollies). This alignment ensures that our products seamlessly integrate into any tier-1 airport environment worldwide.
How we are preparing the next generation of ground support equipment for smart, carbon-neutral operations.
In line with global goals for cleaner transportation, Chidge is pioneering advancements in eco-friendly material handling solutions. Our engineering roadmap includes the following milestones:
By substituting specific framework sections with engineered high-strength aluminum alloys, we reduce unladen weight by up to 15%, lowering the fuel usage of tow vehicles.
Future models support optional IoT tags, enabling airport ground controllers to track trailer locations, speed profiles, and mechanical stresses in real time.
Upgraded safety profiles feature high-visibility shock-absorbing bumpers and automated container lock sensors to verify secure locks before transit.
We work closely with elite airlines, terminal operators, and global logistics networks to establish dependable supply chains.
Comprehensive expert answers to support your technical evaluation and import strategies.
Yes. Shanghai Chidge Industries handles complete export logistics. We coordinate shipping to major ports in Bangladesh (such as Chittagong or Mongla) and arrange overland transport to Rajshahi Airport (Shah Makhdum Airport) or BSCIC Industrial Zones. We supply all compliance certificates, bills of lading, and assembly instructions for swift clearance.
We customize load capacities (ranging from 1.5 tons up to 35 tons), rolling configurations (rollers vs. heavy-duty caster decks), locking mechanisms (LD3, LD6, LD11 containers, or standardized air cargo pallets), towbar dimensions, brake mechanisms, and surface treatments like custom paint schemes to match airline branding.
Our dollies are engineered with hot-dip galvanization to standards exceeding ISO 1461, ensuring resistance to rust in humid climates like Rajshahi. In addition, we use sealed, maintenance-free bearings and anti-corrosive hardware to prevent structural binding and components wear.
Absolutely. All our unpowered and powered GSE lines are engineered in accordance with IATA Airport Handling Manual (AHM) guidelines, including AHM 910, AHM 913, and AHM 968. This ensures that the equipment conforms to standardized towing mechanisms, turning radii, and safety lock protocols.
Production cycles generally range between 30 to 45 days, depending on order size and customization level. Sea transit from Shanghai Port to Bangladesh ports takes approximately 15 to 20 days. Detailed project schedules are provided during quotation stages.
Yes. Every batch of GSE dollies shipped comes with operational manuals, parts lists, and assembly guides. We maintain a large inventory of wearing parts (such as rollers, castor wheels, towbar pins, and brake linkages) for fast global express delivery.
Yes, we design multi-purpose cargo dollies featuring configurable stoppers, gravity locks, and roller beds. This allows ground handlers to toggle between container locking systems (e.g., LD3/LD1) and flat pallets on a single chassis.
Our dollies are equipped with a mechanical brake linkage connected directly to the towbar assembly. When the towbar is raised to a vertical storage position or dropped to the ground, the brake locks the wheels automatically. Releasing the towbar to towing height automatically disengages the brake for towing.
Choose from our heavy-duty dollies and baggage carts designed for demanding logistics hubs.
