Welcoming new partners into our Corporate SAF programme

We are excited to announce the addition of three new partners to our Corporate Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Programme. The programme’s first non-governmental organisation (NGO) partner Business Environment Council, and two new cargo customers have joined our launch customers – AIA, Airport Authority Hong Kong (AAHK), Kintetsu World Express (KWE), PwC China, Standard Chartered and Swire Pacific – to decarbonize business travel and cargo shipments.

Cathay Group Chief Executive Officer Ronald Lam said: “Decarbonisation is very high on our list of priorities, but we cannot do it alone. Our Corporate SAF Programme is a great example of how like-minded organisations can work together and convey a clear message to the SAF supply chain that there is firm demand from this part of the world. We look forward to welcoming other interested companies to sign up and join our mission to be Greener Together."

SAF is considered to be the most important lever for decarbonising airline operations over the next few decades. Compared to conventional jet fuel, SAF can reduce over 80% of carbon emissions on a lifecycle basis, depending on the SAF technology and feedstock used.
