Cathay Cargo Terminal to adopt 50% recycled plastic cover sheets in new sustainability initiative

The new material will be rolled out from March 2024.

Cathay Cargo Terminal will adopt 50% recycled plastic cargo cover sheets for all export cargo shipments built up within its terminal, an increase from its current recycled content specification of 30%.

This marks Cathay Cargo Terminal’s new sustainability initiative following its participation in the IATA Environmental Assessment (IEnvA) programme in October 2023.

The IEnvA programme provides globally recognised environmental and sustainability standards for the aviation industry.

The new material will be rolled out across the terminal from March 2024.

"Embracing sustainability is pivotal in shaping the future of air cargo. Our adoption of 50% recycled plastic cargo cover sheets reaffirms Cathay Cargo's commitment to environmental stewardship and sets a new standard for the industry,” Tom Owen, Cathay Director Cargo said.
