BUILDING OUR SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY
Materiality Analysis: Building Our Sustainability Strategy
Our sustainability journey began in 2020. Through formal interviews with key stakeholder groups and a broader industry assessment, we identified the sustainability topics most relevant to our business and stakeholders.
These insights were consolidated into a Materiality Matrix, a framework used to guide our sustainability priorities and strategic direction.
In 2023, the process was repeated to reconfirm these priorities and further refine our approach as our business and industry have continued to evolve.
AVIATION SUSTAINABILITY FORUM
Proudly Supporting The Aviation Industry
FORMIA is one of the early members of the Aviation Sustainability Forum (ASF), whose mission is to collaborate for the development of sustainable inflight service solutions.
REDUCING OUR IMPACT
Path to Net-Zero
As a leader in our sector, FORMIA is committed to embedding best practices across our operations and supply chain to support our Net Zero ambition.
On a corporate level, we annually assess our greenhouse gas emissions in line with the GHG Protocol to identify hotspots and prioritise meaningful reductions.
At a product level, we conduct Life Cycle Impact Assessments (LCIA) to better understand environmental impacts from raw material extraction through to end-of-life. These insights help guide decision-making both internally and with clients.
We have identified sustainable material selection and renewable energy production as key drivers in reducing the environmental footprint of our products, supported through close collaboration with our manufacturing partners and stakeholders.
CONSCIOUS DESIGN & MATERIALS
Designing with circularity in mind
Our designs integrate circular principles guided by the R-ladder of circularity, focusing on high take-home appeal and reducing waste wherever possible.
We define sustainable materials as those that are recycled, natural or organic, renewable, made from agricultural waste, recyclable, biodegradable or compostable.
Across our onboard product range, we strive to increase the share of sustainable materials, while continuing to meet safety, performance, and airline requirements.

OUR PEOPLE
We place greater emphasis on employee wellbeing and engagement to promote cross-functional collaboration across regions and teams. The opening of our Hong Kong headquarters, which achieved both LEED Gold and WELL Gold certifications, demonstrated our commitment to support employee safety, health, comfort, and productivity.
FORMIA is an equal opportunities employer, providing employees with a work environment free of discrimination and harassment.
OUR COMMUNITIES
FORMIA supports communities in which we operate, both locally and internationally.
We partner with Changing Young Lives Foundation and Habitat For Humanity
FORMIA volunteers time and donates a range of products on an ongoing basis that support programme development and delivery work for those underprivileged communities.
We engage in further community activities with environmental NGOs near and dear to our heart, such as Beyond Plastic and One Tree Planted.
Our hope is to make a tangible difference and build a long-lasting relationship with these organisations.
Supporting young people in their educational endeavors is also important to FORMIA. We proudly provide educational scholarships through the IFSA Foundation, and work with local Hong Kong universities on internships and student projects when the opportunity arises.
