AirPlus’ climate-neutral settlement solution presented with the award at ITB // AirPlus offers other sustainable products for business travel
At ITB in Berlin, the climate protection organization myclimate presented its myclimate Award 2015 to the AirPlus Green Company Account to honor AirPlus’ pioneering role in the field of sustainable financial products for the travel industry. Developed last year and successfully launched in the market by AirPlus, the leading global provider of daily solutions for business travel management, the AirPlus Green Company Account is the first climate-neutral settlement solution for business trips.
Corporations bear great responsibility for the economy and society. Climate-friendly solutions have become indispensable, particularly for the business travel industry. At this year’s ITB trade fair, myclimate honored the AirPlus Green Company Account as a climate protection pioneer in the travel industry. Stefan Baumeister, Managing Director of myclimate Deutschland GmbH, on his organization’s decision stated: “With the Green Company Account, AirPlus has launched yet another project that integrates climate and environmental protection in an exemplary and customer-friendly manner.”
The AirPlus Green Company Account is the first entirely CO2-neutral product offered by the financial services sector. It has been tailored to meet the needs of organizations that in the course of their daily business set great store by Corporate Social Responsibility (CRS). “Our mission was to create a dedicated solution to support our commitment to protecting the environment even while traveling,” says Patrick W. Diemer, Managing Director at AirPlus. “Developing an entirely climate-neutral product based on the AirPlus Company Account was only logical.”
AirPlus uses the climate-neutral settlement solution for its own staff’s business travel as well. In addition to the AirPlus Green Company Account, for some time AirPlus has been providing companies with AirPlus Green Reports, detailed analyses of the CO2 emissions generated by their business flights. These analyses can be integrated directly into any organization’s CSR or environmental activities.
