February 17, 2026 |

In Switzerland, Kuehne+Nagel, LATAM Cargo, and The Elite Flower have carried out their largest SAF-based operation to date in Latin America, reducing about 300 tons of CO2e linked to the transportation of more than 495 tons of flowers.

The initiative reduced CO2e associated with exporting Colombian flowers from Bogota to Miami for Valentine’s Day, one of the floriculture industry’s most important seasons, by using Book and Claim for SAF, the company said.

“Collaborating with our partners generates and drives positive and innovative changes in important industries like perishables and air logistics, where reducing carbon emissions is essential. We are proud of the continued commitment to expand this initiative year after year and to inspire more stakeholders in Latin America and globally to continue advancing decarbonization initiatives in our supply chains through Book and Claim methodology,” said Ana San Carlos, Sustainability Manager for Latin America at Kuehne+Nagel.
