Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance (AFI KLM E&M) is proud to announce the purchase of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) to power 10% of total engine test operations conducted annually at its Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Amsterdam-Schiphol (AMS) facilities. This decisive step underscores the company's commitment to reducing its direct carbon emissions and supporting the aviation sector’s transition toward more sustainable operations.
With approximately 300 engine test runs conducted each year across its two major facilities, AFI KLM E&M’s integration of SAF represents a tangible and immediate contribution to decarbonizing maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) activities. The initiative will officially launch in July 2025 and was highlighted during the Paris Airshow 2025, Le Bourget, Paris.
”Our engine testing operations are a critical component of MRO services. By integrating SAF into these processes, we are taking concrete action to lower our carbon footprint and set an example for sustainability within the MRO industry," stated Jean-Louis Forest Senior Vice-President at AFI KLM E&M.
