Our commitments
A corporate responsibility at the heart of the industrial project
AéroNéo Algeria embeds a corporate responsibility approach from its pre-launch phase, covering environment, climate, social, economic, training and governance dimensions — aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Our manifesto
Making Africa's aviation autonomy a responsible project
AéroNéo Algeria is an Algerian-law company (SARL), currently in pre-launch phase. The structuring of the company and the design of the industrial site projected in southern Algeria integrate, from the outset, an assumed corporate responsibility approach. This is not a side chapter bolted on afterwards but a structuring framework that guides our technical, contractual and human choices.
Our conviction is simple: at a time when global aviation must reduce its environmental footprint, bringing back to Algeria the heavy maintenance, long-term storage, cargo conversion and dismantling operations currently performed off-continent is not only a sovereignty choice — it is also an ecological act. Every relocated operation avoids transcontinental ferry repositioning flights with a massive carbon footprint.
This approach is consistent with Algeria's national guidelines — supervisory authority ANAC (National Civil Aviation Authority) — and with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The certifications and authorisations mentioned on this page reflect a projected state; none is announced as obtained until it actually is.
Clean Tech by design
The projected 300-hectare site in southern Algeria is designed as a Clean Tech platform: the naturally anti-corrosion Saharan climate lowers energy consumption, Green Recycling targets a circular economy for aircraft, and the energy mix will include a solar component consistent with Algeria's guidelines.
Six pillars
A six-dimension ESG approach
Environment, climate, social, economic, training, governance: six axes tackled together, from the very design of the industrial project.
Environment
Green Recycling targeting 95 % material recovery at end-of-dismantling, alignment with AFRA Best Management Practices, ISO 14001 certification in preparation and solvent-free ice-blasting cleaning processes: environmental impact mastery is built into the very design of the site.
Climate
The dry, hot Saharan climate of the projected site naturally minimises hangar heating and heavy-duty cooling needs, lowering the energy footprint of operations. Water management will be designed as a closed loop and the electricity supply will include a solar mix consistent with Algeria's energy guidelines.
Social
The project targets the creation of 200 to 300 qualified jobs in southern Algeria during the operating phase, with a gender-parity objective and a graduate-integration scheme drawing from Algerian aerospace schools. A housing and family-support policy for relocated employees is under study.
Economic
Contribute to Algeria's industrial sovereignty by repatriating heavy maintenance, long-term storage, cargo conversion and dismantling operations currently performed off-continent. Local value added — subcontracting, suppliers, support services — will be prioritised whenever technical quality allows.
Training
Establishment of a B1/B2 training centre (mechanics and avionics technicians), anchored on university partnerships with the National Polytechnic School of Algiers, the Institute of Aeronautics and Space Studies of Blida 1, and regional technical pathways. PART-147 approval is targeted in the medium term.
Governance
Assumed transparency from the pre-launch phase onward: factual communication on the real status of authorisations, regulatory alignment first and foremost with ANAC (Algeria's National Civil Aviation Authority), then with the international PART-145 EASA and FAA, AFRA, and ISO 9001/14001 standards. No certification is announced as obtained until it actually is.

Where we stand
Our current approach and our targets
A readable view of the commitments made, from the pre-operating starting point to the objectives at full ramp-up.
| Area | Current approach | Our target |
|---|---|---|
| Material recycling | Dismantling processes designed in line with AFRA Best Management Practices. | 95 % material recovery at end-of-dismantling at full capacity. |
| Environmental management system | ISO 14001 approach engaged from the pre-operating phase. | ISO 14001 certification obtained before the first industrial operation. |
| Energy | Saharan climate minimising thermal needs; energy balance under study. | Solar component integrated into the site's energy mix, closed-loop water management. |
| Employment | Pre-mapping of available skills and territorial training needs. | 200 to 300 qualified jobs created in southern Algeria at full ramp-up. |
| Training | University partnership agreements under preparation. | B1/B2 training centre operational, PART-147 approval targeted in the medium term. |
| Governance | Factual, transparent communication on the real status of authorisations. | ANAC compliance obtained, then international standards: PART-145 EASA and FAA, AFRA, ISO 9001/14001. |
Partnerships, ESG and cooperations
Universities, Algerian public bodies, recycling-sector actors, technical partners: to discuss an ESG project aligned with our approach, get in touch. We will be glad to examine any concrete cooperation serving Africa's aviation autonomy.
