Sustainability

The Airbus Foundation is proud to present its 2023 annual activity report, highlighting a year of impactful initiatives that have made a difference in communities worldwide.

Prized by aerospace manufacturers for their strength, stiffness and durability, carbon fibre composites are usually produced from fossil fuels. They can also be made from sustainable organic materials. Airbus has created an experimental helicopter panel using ‘bio-derived’ fibres, whose production process starts with capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide.

In line with its decarbonisation roadmap, Airbus is joining forces with airlines to increase the use of sustainable aviation fuel for employee business travel.
