This summer, TIACA launched its first annual Sustainability Award, sponsored by CHAMP Cargosystems. This first edition received applications from established corporates and start-ups, with very diverse focus, addressing CO2 emissions, waste reduction, recycling, weight reduction for ULDs and packaging, humanitarian aid, staff wellbeing and retention, and animal welfare.
Only 3 remain in the running: M&G Packaging Corp, Nallian and Wings for Aid Foundation.
The projects were submitted to an independent and diverse Jury,composed by 5 judges: Steven Polmans, Director Cargo & Logistics at Brussels Airport Company and Chairman of TIACA’s Board; Arnaud Lambert, CEO of CHAMP Cargosystems; Lilian Tan, Vice President, Strategic Aviation Solutions International; Susy Schöneberg, Head of Flexport.org; Deniz Daştan, Quality Management and Development Manager at Turkish Airlines.
Each application was scored in full transparency on criteria such as potential social, environmental and economic impacts, robustness and attractiveness of the project.
