In this episode of Check-in, Mark Lakerveld, David Duque Lozano and Fieke de Haan provide insights on sustainability and the baggage logistics industry. Did you know that a baggage handling system (BHS) can use up to 40% of an airport’s energy requirements? The BHS is at the very core of airport operations and also has an impact on use of space, assets and people’s working conditions. Therefore, any efforts to improve an airport’s green credentials must look at making baggage operations more sustainable.
At the end of this episode, we also get a sneak preview into the views of airports’ industry body ACI World.
