C8Rtech launches as standalone airline-catering technology company
C8Rtech showcases its airline-catering technology solutions at WTCE
C8Rtech has officially launched as a standalone company, introducing a new player focused on delivering advanced airline-catering technology solutions to a rapidly evolving global market.
Based in Frankfurt, Germany, the company has been established as an independent entity following its origins within LSG Group, including LSG Sky Chefs. The move is designed to unlock the full potential of its technology portfolio while accelerating global expansion as a dedicated, innovation-driven organization.
C8Rtech enters the market with more than 25 years of industry expertise behind its team, positioning itself to support both airlines and caterers with digital tools that streamline processes, improve efficiency and enable data-driven decision making.
At the core of its offering are two integrated platforms designed to simplify and modernize airline catering operations. The Catering Suite is a mobile-first, real-time digital solution that manages shopfloor activities, including flight handling, meal and non-food loading, material forecasting and production processes. Complementing this, the Inflight Suite provides airlines with a centralized platform to plan and execute catering operations in collaboration with partners, supporting more seamless inflight service delivery.
“Our mission is simple, to cut complexity, elevate productivity and help you stay ahead in a fast-evolving industry,” says Thomas Halter, Managing Director of C8Rtech. “We bring airlines and caterers together in one integrated ecosystem for seamless, data-driven planning and operational excellence.”

The launch reflects a broader shift in the industry toward digitalization and operational integration, as airlines and catering providers seek more agile and connected solutions to manage increasingly complex supply chains.
C8Rtech will present its technology portfolio at the World Travel Catering & Onboard Services Expo (WTCE) in Hamburg, offering industry stakeholders an opportunity to explore its solutions firsthand as the company begins its next phase of growth.
