Jet Aviation Commits to Sustainable Aviation

Jet Aviation confirmed its ongoing commitment to sustainable aviation in the industry’s first ever (virtual) sustainability summit hosted by the Business Aviation Coalition for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF Coalition). The company was the first, exclusive provider of SAF in Switzerland through its pilot program during WEF 2020. It continues to invest in sustainable solutions, recently delivering industry-leading weight values in its quietest ever VIP cabin interior.

Jet Aviation President and GAMA Chairman David Paddock joined a panel of industry and OEM leaders and U.S. government officials in the Virtual 2020 Business Aviation Sustainability Summit on the importance of sustainability to the industry, and the significance of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in particular. Addressing questions to the panel on sustainability, technology, operations, infrastructure and alternative fuels, Paddock emphasized the need to invest in solutions for owners and operators and the importance of public-private partnerships in driving awareness, understanding, research and development.

Recent sustainable efforts introduced at Jet Aviation include new fume pipes and skylights (Basel), facilities built to LEED standards (Boston-Bedford, Burbank, Van Nuys and Palm Beach), as well as low flow water fixtures, a white roof and a heat-reducing tarmac (Palm Beach).
