All Nippon Airways (ANA) has become the first Japanese airline to receive the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Center of Excellence for Independent Validators in Lithium Batteries (CEIV Li-batt) certification. This certification, achieved on December 24, 2024, recognizes ANA’s commitment to the highest safety and compliance standards for transporting lithium batteries.
With the increasing use of lithium batteries in various industries, the safe transportation of these potentially hazardous materials is crucial. ANA’s comprehensive lithium battery handling processes, including staff training, specialized equipment, and strict safety protocols, have met IATA’s stringent certification requirements.
“At ANA, our top priority is safety and the reliability of our services to our valued customers,” said Kenichi Wakiya, Executive Vice President of Cargo Marketing & Services at ANA and President & CEO of ANA Cargo. “Being CEIV Li-batt certified by IATA reinforces our commitment to meeting our customers’ needs by providing the highest standards of safe transport.”
Nick Careen, IATA SVP Operations Safety and Security, congratulated ANA on achieving CEIV Li-batt certification, stating, “This certification underscores ANA’s commitment to meeting the highest standards in handling and transporting lithium batteries safely and efficiently. The CEIV Li-batt program is vital for ensuring safety and compliance across the supply chain, and we are pleased to see ANA contributing towards raising the industry benchmark.”
In addition to the CEIV Li-batt certification, ANA also holds IATA’s CEIV Pharma and CEIV Fresh certifications for its pharmaceutical and perishable transport, demonstrating its dedication to providing high-quality specialized transportation services.
