CTOs of 7 aerospace firms publish sustainability manifesto

June 16, 2023 EcoVadis EN


Days ahead of the opening of the Paris Air Show, the Chief Technology Officers (CTOs) of seven major aerospace manufacturers have published a joint manifesto calling on governments and industry to accelerate the production and supply of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). 

In the statement, the CTOs of Airbus, Boeing, Dassault Aviation, GE Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce and Safran come out in support of the 2050 net zero objective.
