The partnership in SAF underlines our shared dedication to further decarbonize the air freight transportation sector. The Volvo Group will purchase the environmental attributes (CO? emission reductions) derived from SAF through Kintetsu World Express for all their contracted air freight shipments year-round with KWE.
It will contribute to Volvo Group’s ambitious goal of achieving climate neutrality throughout its value chain by 2040. The agreement will be a major stimulus for the air cargo industry to further promote the use of SAF.
Yoshikazu Yashiki, Managing Officer of KWE commented:
As a global logistics provider, we have been seeking for a mechanism to share the environmental attributes of SAF with our customers.
“We are very pleased and proud to be working with Volvo Group, one of the most sustainable companies in the world. We look forward to other partners joining our SAF program.”
Christina Bentzler Möller, SVP Service Market Logistics Volvo Group commented:
This strategic partnership underscores our vision to decarbonize Volvo’s supply chain related to air freights.
“Using sustainable aviation fuel, we are not just meeting industry standards; we are also actively contributing to a cleaner, greener future and supporting our sustainability strategy.”
