Lufthansa Cargo and CEVA Logistics formalized their Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), signed this summer, making it a legally binding agreement on the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). The signing took place on November 21 during CEVA Logistics’ Airfreight Annual Strategic Partners Council in Paris.

The agreement establishes CEVA Logistics’ use of SAF, certified for 2025, equivalent to a reduction of 8,000 tons of CO₂. Furthermore, both companies agreed on a long-term cooperation framework until the end of 2028, reinforcing a relationship built on transparency, continuous exchange, and shared sustainability standards.

According to Loïc Gay, Global Air & Ocean Products VP of CEVA Logistics, the agreement “represents a significant step towards measurably reducing our CO₂ emissions with a partner that guarantees maximum transparency, reliable certifications, and clear sustainability standards.”

For his part, Anand Kulkarni, Head of Global Markets at Lufthansa Cargo, highlighted that CEVA Logistics’ decision to adopt SAF “demonstrates a clear commitment to the decarbonization of air transport,” emphasizing that climate action requires “strong partnerships and decisive steps.”

The SAF used in this agreement comes exclusively from waste and scrap materials, is palm oil-free, and meets the highest international standards. Emission reductions are confirmed by audited Emission Mitigation Certificates and are supported by Lufthansa Cargo’s Proof of Sustainability (PoS).

This agreement is part of a broader collaboration between the two organizations, which includes circular economy projects, knowledge sharing, and joint innovation and research activities.
