Air Canada and Airbus' latest SAF investment initiative is another signal that the industry is moving from SAF commitments to SAF implementation.

As commercial-scale SAF capacity grows, the industry will face increasing demands around feedstock integrity, fuel quality, sustainability verification, supply chain traceability and regulatory compliance.

Intertek's global ATIC capabilities help producers, airlines, traders, investors and supply chain stakeholders manage these challenges through independent assurance, testing, inspection and certification services across the renewable fuels value chain.

Whether supporting feedstock verification, fuel testing, sustainability schemes, cargo inspections or operational assurance, our experts help clients build confidence in SAF projects and support successful market deployment. Our Intertek experts will take you from the first litre all the way to commercial production volumes.

Initiatives such as this demonstrate the growing momentum behind SAF and the importance of trusted independent partners in enabling scalable, compliant and sustainable growth.

Air Canada, the country’s largest airline and flag carrier, and Airbus, a global leader in aerospace manufacturing with the largest commercial aircraft industrial footprint in Canada, are uniting their shared commitment to aviation decarbonisation.
