Aerojet de Costa Rica: Pioneering Sustainability in Aviation in Central America

In 2022, Aerojet Handling Group achieved a groundbreaking milestone by becoming the first private company to introduce an electric charging station at a public airport in both Costa Rica and Central America. This set a new standard for sustainability in aviation, underscoring their unwavering commitment to a greener future and their mission to lead the industry toward greater environmental responsibility.

As part of Aerojet’s promise to reduce our environmental impact, they have achieved a 50% reduction in the carbon footprint of their cargo operations by transitioning to electric loaders and tractors, significantly decreasing emissions associated with ground handling activities. This achievement reflects their dedication to integrating sustainable practices across all operations. In 2020, they purchased the first electric loader in Latin America, marking a major milestone in their ongoing pursuit of a greener future.

In addition to revolutionizing cargo operations, they have embraced electric towbarless technology for private aviation. By utilizing environmentally friendly equipment—such as electric towbarless tractors—they have eliminated the carbon footprint associated with towing operations, ensuring all movements are powered entirely by clean energy. Today, every towing movement they perform is wholly powered by clean energy, demonstrating their commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship.

Aerojet de Costa Rica aims to exceed expectations. They strive daily to grow, improve, and provide exceptional service to their clients while safeguarding the planet for future generations. Through their continued efforts, they are shaping the future of aviation and contributing to a more sustainable world.
