Reidy Airport Terminal Equipment

Company Profile


REIDY AIRPORT TERMINAL EQUIPMENT Pty Ltd (RATE) was formed in November 1996 prior to reaching a formal agreement with Technologia Europea Aplicada Al Movimiento SL , TEAM, to supply passenger boarding bridges into the Australian market. TEAM has now left the aircraft aerobridge market and RATE has now reached a formal agreement with CIMC-Tianda to supply and support aerobridges into the Australian market.

RATE was born from the desire by Managing Director, Peter Reidy, to offer a superior product to Australian airlines and airports. With our connection with TEAM, and now CIMC, we believe we have this product.

Although RATE was formed in 1996 the history of aerobridges and RATE personnel actually goes back to 1989.

RATE has a sister company call INDELEC (Industrial Electrics) Pty Ltd, which has been performing work on aerobridges since 1989.

The key personnel of Indelec are the same key personnel of RATE. Since 1989 Indelec / RATE has performed the following works on aerobridges:
