Asia Airfreight Terminal (AAT), a subsidiary of SATS Ltd, has been named \u201cSustainable Warehouse Operator of the Year 2025\u201d by the Freightweek Sustainability Awards, which recognize global excellence in environmental leadership across the logistics sector.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This recognition reaffirms AAT\u2019s commitment to climate action and its role in shaping sustainable logistics practices.<\/p>\n

AAT\u2019s climate initiatives are aligned with its ambitious targets to reduce carbon emissions by 55% by 2035 and to achieve net-zero by 2050, with 2018 as the baseline year. To date, the company has achieved a 33% reduction in carbon footprint. Mike Chew, CEO of AAT, remarked, \u201cSustainability is a continuous journey. AAT is committed to leading with purpose, embracing innovation, and setting industry benchmarks that support both business growth and community wellbeing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Key initiatives include the electrification of its vehicle fleet – making AAT the first cargo terminal operator in Hong Kong to deploy electric autonomous tractors for terminal operations – with full electrification planned by 2030 and supporting infrastructure upgrades underway. The adoption of HVO fuel by end-2025 will provide a sustainable interim solution, while ongoing LED lighting upgrades have reached over 90% coverage across facilities, generating significant energy and carbon savings.<\/p>\n

In waste and resource management, AAT has reduced waste by 32% since 2018, expanded its recycling infrastructure, and launched creative initiatives such as uniform upcycling through social enterprise to support underprivileged communities. The company has also increased the recycled content in its plastic cargo cover sheets to 50%, promoting circular material use.<\/p>\n

These efforts are further reinforced by AAT\u2019s pursuit of IATA\u2019s IEnvA certification, targeted for completion in the first half of 2026, which will embed robust environmental management across its operations.<\/p>\n
