Aircraft de-icing management software
During a frost episode, everything happens within minutes: which de-icer to send to which aircraft, which fluid to apply, how much to bill the airline. At most airports, this information still travels by radio and on paper, and is pieced together afterwards.
Aircharge De-icing applies to de-icing the platform that has been running aircraft fuelling since 2000. De-icing requests are linked to the flight schedule, missions are allocated to available de-icers and operators follow their mission order on a tablet: aircraft, stand, requested treatment.
At the end of each treatment, fluid type, quantities, start and end times and the operator are recorded for every aircraft. The data goes straight to billing and into a complete history, ready for airline audits. De-icer maintenance is managed in the same tool.
Key features
De-icer dispatch linked to the flight schedule and airline requests
Treatment recorded on a tablet: fluid type, quantities, start and end times, signature
Per-aircraft billing, fluid stock and a full history of every treatment
De-icing run like fuelling
De-icing looks a lot like fuelling: a specialised vehicle, an aircraft, a measured product, an airline to bill. Aircharge brings dispatch, field data entry, billing, fluid stock and de-icer maintenance together on one platform.
Requests and allocation
De-icing requests are linked to flights. The supervisor allocates each mission to an available de-icer and tracks progress in real time.
Mission order on a tablet
The operator receives the aircraft, the stand and the requested treatment, records fluid, quantities and times, then validates the mission.
Fluid stock tracked
Quantities used per mission are deducted from fluid stock. Replenishment needs are visible before the peak of the season.
Per-aircraft billing
Each treatment is priced according to the airline contract and fed straight into billing, with no re-keying and no reconciling of paper sheets.
Season KPIs
Aircraft treated, treatment times, fluid quantities per aircraft type, de-icer availability. Figures to prepare next season.
De-icers available
Aircharge CMMS schedules de-icer preventive maintenance before winter. A vehicle declared out of service is removed from allocations immediately.
From de-icing request to invoice, with no paper and no radio
Receive
The request is created by the airline or the supervisor, linked to the flight and the stand. It appears in dispatch immediately.
Allocate
The supervisor allocates the mission to an available de-icer. The operator receives it on the tablet, with the aircraft and the requested treatment.
Treat and record
During treatment, the operator records fluid type, quantities, start and end times. The mission is validated and signed.
Bill and analyse
The validated mission goes to billing. Fluid stock, history and season KPIs update automatically.
Why not treatment sheets and a spreadsheet?
Paper and spreadsheets work when everything goes smoothly. In the middle of a cold snap, they are what causes late billing, disputes and gaps in the history.
The Aircharge platform is trusted by Airfuel, SAP, GPA and Klinzing

Aircharge De-icing in practice
Is Aircharge already used for de-icing?
The Aircharge platform has been in production since 2000 for aircraft fuelling, including at Paris-CDG and Orly. De-icing relies on the same building blocks: dispatch, operator tablet, billing, stock and maintenance. We configure your treatments, fluids and airline contracts with you.
Which fluids and treatments can be tracked?
Fluids and treatment types are configurable: de-icing and anti-icing, in one or two steps. Each treatment records the fluid used and the quantities applied per aircraft.
How are airlines billed?
Each validated mission is priced according to the airline contract, then sent to billing. No more reconciling treatment sheets at month end.
Do operators need to learn a new tool?
Missions are received and completed on a tablet, with simple actions designed for outdoor use. Operators already trained on Aircharge for fuelling use the same tool.
Can de-icer maintenance be managed too?
Yes. Aircharge CMMS schedules de-icer preventive maintenance before the season and removes any vehicle declared out of service from dispatch.
