ASD promotes innovation and sustainability in aerospace and defence, advancing environmental initiatives, chemical safety, and circular economy practices
ASD is committed to fostering innovation that aligns with Europe’s sustainability goals across the aerospace, space, and defence sectors.
ASD develops and promotes positions on EU environmental initiatives, addressing climate change, sustainable fuels, chemicals, emissions, noise, and air quality. This includes tracking and engaging with emerging legislation and working with European and international stakeholders to support industry adaptation and highlight environmental advancements within the sector.
ASD works to build industry consensus on EU chemical policies that impact aerospace and defence, fostering a unified approach to navigating chemical legislation while ensuring safety, durability, and reliability of products.
As new regulations continue to expand, particularly those stemming from the EU’s Chemical Strategy for Sustainability, ASD’s initiatives are key to managing compliance while promoting innovation in chemical safety and circular economy practices. By connecting environmental goals with cutting-edge standards and product development, ASD actively supports an industry that is not only innovative but also increasingly sustainable, ensuring business continuity while safeguarding public health and the environment.
