SATS reduces food waste to 2.3% in FY2023

The company eyes using 100% sustainable food packaging by 2030.

SATS has reduced its food waste intensity to 2.3% in FY2023, from a baseline of 4.1% in FY2021, the company’s latest sustainability report showed.

The company said that it has been tracking food waste generated in its kitchens since 2020, using an AI-enabled waste tracking system. This has enabled the company to improve their material planning and reduce waste generated in their food production, SATS said.

“We have implemented the use of a similar AI-enabled food waste tracking system in our newly opened Tianjin kitchen,” the company said in its sustainability report.

SATS added that the same food waste tracking service will be extended to its customers. Beginning last July, SATS will help Singapore Airlines track unconscumed meals from inbound flights into Singapore, which it expects will help SIA and SATS improve menu and demand planning to reduce wastage.

SATS has also converted 38% of its ground support equipment to cleaner energy sources, the report stated.

The company further shared that it has generate 11,000 MWh of renewable energy in 2022, which it says is the most extensive solar PV system at Changi Airport

SATS has set a goal of using 100% sustainable food packaging by 2030. In line with this, it revealed that it has formed a sustainable packaging task force and developed new rules in packaging to guide in its choice of packaging materials to use.

“While we work towards the goal of developing and delivering packaging that is designed for circularity, we are seizing every opportunity to switch to using sustainable materials. For example, in China, our Beijing Airport Inflight Kitchen (BAIK) is using wooden cutlery with paper packaging for inflight meals in line with regulatory requirements,” SATS said.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
