EcoCeres earns China’s SAF export recognition and airworthiness certificate  

EcoCeres has announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, ECO Biochemical Technology (Zhangjiagang) Company Limited (ECO BioTech), has been included in the official China SAF export “White List” and awarded China’s airworthiness certificate.
These recognitions confirm EcoCeres’ compliance with aviation safety standards for both domestic and international markets, as well as the operational reliability standards set by local authorities.
To date, only a handful of producers have been included in the China SAF export White List or have received China’s airworthiness certificate – ECO BioTech proudly among them. While these qualifications are formally granted to ECO BioTech, they collectively reinforce EcoCeres’ standing position as a trusted provider of sustainable aviation fuel solutions from Asia to the global market.
The combined achievements of being recognised on China’s SAF Export “White List” and obtaining the airworthiness certificate demonstrate EcoCeres’ strong technical expertise, outstanding product quality, and unwavering commitment to aviation safety.
Together, these milestones validate that EcoCeres’ SAF production and quality assurance. This recognition not only reinforces EcoCeres’ reliability as a SAF producer but also enables the company to expand supply channels from China to domestic and global airlines and fuel partners, accelerating its growth and positioning EcoCeres as a trusted contributor to decarbonising global aviation.
“We are deeply grateful to the Mainland Chinese authorities and all the relevant departments and experts for their support and guidance throughout the rigorous process leading to these dual recognitions,” said Matti Lievonen, CEO of EcoCeres.
“Building on this strong foundation, we look forward to working with our partners to drive broader adoption of SAF in both Chinese and international markets, helping to accelerate the development of the SAF ecosystem in China and advance global decarbonisation in aviation.”
With these new qualifications, EcoCeres plans to deepen collaboration with domestic and international airlines, fuel distributors and other value‑chain partners to expand the availability of SAF produced in China to key aviation hubs at home and abroad. This will support efforts in China and across the global aviation industry to reduce lifecycle carbon emissions and achieve long‑term climate targets.
