Greg Schwendinger, President of American Airlines Cargo speaks on "Cargo Mastermind" about American’s efforts to achieve NetZero by 2050 with the help of BioNatur Plastics.

American Airlines and its cargo division is placing its faith in hydrogen and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) technology development to reach zero-emission operations by 2050.

American’s cargo division is transitioning to biodegradable plastic wrap for use in its operations, which, in 2022, reduced long-term plastic waste by more than 130,000 lbs., equal to 6.4 million plastic water bottles. While traditional plastic can take up to 1,000 years to break down, the BioNatur Plastics™ wrap now used by American biodegrades in 5 to 10 years in normal landfill conditions.

This weekend we celebrate Global Recycling Day, a day created to help recognize, and celebrate, the importance recycling plays in preserving our primary resources and securing the future of our planet. It is a day for the world to come together and put the planet first.

Alliance Ground International (AGI) has announced the launch of the AGI CARES 2028 ESG programme. AGI has begun converting all plastic sheeting used in cargo shipping to M&G Packaging's BioNatur Plastics products.

American Airlines Cargo announced its transition to BioNatur Plastics™, launched by M&G Packaging, for use in its cargo operations.

It’s been six weeks since Greg Schwendinger took up the role of president of American Airlines Cargo when Air Cargo News spoke to him for the first time and so far, it’s been a “fantastic experience”.

IAG Cargo, the cargo division of International Airlines Group (IAG) has announced that it is trialing BioNatur stretch wrap to be used for wrapping transported goods as part of its sustainability strategy.

Looking at the definitions of both terms it’s pretty understandable why they are so easily confused but there’s a difference.

We all try to do our part when it comes to trash. We’re taught at young ages to reuse, reduce and recycle to minimize the amount of waste we produce. But has it made a difference?

WFS has reduced the amount of plastic languishing in a landfill after converting to using BioNatur Plastic biodegradable stretch wrap for cargo shipments as part of its sustainability program.
