Sustainability

Sustainability is a subject often considered in the development of corporate responsibility. That should be no different for air cargo. CHAMP Cargosystems' mission fits this purpose like a glove.

To shape tomorrow's world of integrated air cargo logistics
to be simpler, faster, better.

Sustainability is one of the pillars of CHAMP’s strategic plan and is focused on ensuring the industry looks seriously at its environmental impact.

CHAMP embraces technology and innovation to accelerate the evolution of air cargo and bring efficiency and increased performance across the entire air cargo supply chain. As a global IT company, CHAMP supplies the tools that facilitate efficiency - not only to benefit reduced fuel consumption in companies by measuring emissions but also provide crucial data insights. 

CHAMP aims to define and implement strategies for achieving positive and substantial results in Optimizing our Environmental Footprint (OEF) and minimizing logistics-related emissions or waste.

“Together we can make a difference so that sustainability is on the radar and becomes a priority of all the actors of the air cargo industry”

-Chris McDermott, CEO 

Our commitment to sustainability

TIACA Air Cargo Sustainability Program

CHAMP is proud to partner with The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA) to launch the first-ever Air Cargo Sustainability program and Award. The long-term partnership's main objective is to generate ideas and appreciate and stimulate sustainability initiatives in the air cargo sector.

TIACA and CHAMP will work with members, partners, and industry representatives to establish a common vision of sustainability. Together they will develop, promote, and support several campaigns to tackle challenges connected to the three pillars of Sustainability: environment, economic, and social.  

The first awards running was launched this summer. It received applications from established corporates and startups, with a very diverse focus, addressing CO2 emissions, waste reduction, recycling, weight reduction for ULDs and packaging, humanitarian aid, staff wellbeing and retention, and animal welfare. 3 companies were shortlisted: M&G Packaging Corp, Nallian, and Wings for Aid Foundation.

The winner will be announced during the Gala Evening of the TIACA Executive Summit 2019 in Budapest on 21 November 2019.

TIACA BlueSky Certification

TIACA's BlueSky initiative is a sustainability and ESG assessment launched that is used by air cargo businesses to track progress and benchmark efforts against peers.
 
The program aims to promote eight key objectives, which include: decarbonization, eliminating waste, protecting biodiversity, supporting economies, improving lives, improving efficiencies, and attracting employees.
 
After undergoing an assessment, CHAMP has been awarded with a BlueSky certification that verifies our continuous commitment to sustainability. This is an excellent recognition of our industry-specific efforts to promote sustainability and create a greener future for air cargo.
