Airpharm Logistics S.A.U. is the first Spanish forwarder to join the Air France KLM Martinair Cargo (AFKLMP Cargo) Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) programme. SAF is a jet fuel made from renewable sources such as cooking oil and is a sustainable alternative to fossil fuel that reduces carbon emissions by a minimum of 75%. It is blended with conventional fossil fuel and can be used in all aircraft engines.
“Joining the SAF project led by Air France KLM Martinair Cargo presents an excellent opportunity for Airpharm Logistics. We are proud to be the first forwarder to engage with AFKLMP Cargo, thereby helping to reduce the air cargo industry’s carbon footprint.
We reaffirm Airpharm’s commitment to looking for solutions that are less polluting and more respectful of the environment and our responsibility towards sustainability is an essential part of our company’s strategy. This partnership allows us to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals proposed by the United Nations in the 2030 Agenda,” explains CEO Airpharm Logistics, Santiago Martí.
