08:07 AM EDT, 04/03/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Bombardier Inc. (BBD-A.TO, BBD-B.TO) on Wednesday announced that it is the only business jet manufacturer to "ever" disclose the scientifically-analyzed environmental impact of its entire product portfolio. It said the publication of an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its Challenger 650 business jet shows Bombardier's commitment to develop and publish EPDs for all its in-production aircraft by 2025.
All of Bombardier's business jets EPDs are available on the company's website and display, amongst other information, the aircraft CO2 emissions generated at each of the steps of the value chain: from raw material extraction until aircraft end-of-life.
"The role of EPDs is not to stamp our aircraft as more sustainable than others, rather to take ownership of the environmental impact they generate," said Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Executive Vice President, Aircraft Sales & Bombardier Defense, Bombardier. "For clients, these reports can be easily consulted like any other spec document."
