Reducing the carbon impact of our products and services

Daher is taking action on several fronts to reduce the carbon footprint of its offerings.

Designing a Lower-Carbon Aircraft

Daher has committed to developing a lower-carbon aircraft by 2027, while continuously improving the energy efficiency of its planes and increasing the use of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) in its own flight operations. The share of SAF blended with conventional kerosene will exceed 10% by 2027 and reach 20% by 2032. Daher also supports initiatives to authorize SAF blends above 50% to accelerate the sector’s transition.

Lightweight Structures

In parallel, Daher is heavily investing in innovation to make its products lighter. At least 50% of its R&D budget is dedicated to composite research, aiming to deliver lighter aerostructures for future aerospace programs.

Deploying Eco-Design

The Group is strengthening the integration of life-cycle assessment and eco-design principles into product development to reduce environmental impacts from the earliest design stages.

Improving Services

Finally, the Group is enhancing the energy efficiency of its service and transport operations, while promoting the use of biofuels in ground operations. R&D investments continue to optimize tools and transport methods, with a clear commitment to offering more sustainable services to its clients.

95% of the Group’s carbon emissions come from scope 3 downstream, including:

3%

from our TBM and Kodiak aircraft (direct downstream scope 3)

92%

from the products and services provided to our customers (indirect downstream scope 3) including aircraft manufacturers or engine manufacturers and components embedded on their platforms.
