Advancing Sustainable Aviation



We take responsibility

Corporate Responsibility is an essential part of our identity. We are convinced that profitable growth and future business success are based in large measure on foresighted and responsible behavior. Respecting ESG standards is thus a central element of our actions. With our operations, we aim to drive the transformation towards a more sustainable aviation industry, increase people’s wellbeing, and strengthen the trust of our stakeholders.

Environmental

Protecting our environment and natural resources is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Lufthansa Technik is committed to this goal. We are constantly developing products and services for a more sustainable aviation industry. We are striving to transform our processes and energy footprint to reduce our carbon footprint toward carbon neutrality. In our daily efforts to preserve and extend the lifespan of aviation materials, we strive for a circular economy. We invest in further recycling and waste management measures that help conserve valuable raw materials.
