Aeronautical-record year

Aeronautical-record year

Great news! 2015 has been a record year for us. We will end the year with over 39,300 aircraft manufactured parts, representing an increase of 22.23 percent over the 32,300 parts manufactured in 2014.

Our main production plants, those of Illescas and Jerez, the aeronautical centers of reference in composites in Europe, reach an industrial speed close to 100 percent of its capacity in the case of the first and, in just in two years, the one in Jerez is almost 50 per cent of its capacity with a forecast peak capacity in 2017. In this way, we consolidate our position as a European manufacturer reference of aircraft parts in composites.

 

Our origin is in the aerospace and we have being more than 15 years manufacturing parts, developing technology and engineering in this sector. We have gone from small manufacturing orders to be a Tier 2 of reference for a giant like Airbus. We currently manufacture structural parts for Airbus models A320, A320neo, A330, A340, A350, A380 among other commercial aircrafts, and the A400M (one of the largest military aircraft in the world) and the C295 of military use. The parts produced are very different, both in features and sizes: racks that hold the engines hanging from the wing, covers fuel tanks, beams and panels of the belly of the plane, parts of the nose, and so on.

We give great importance to the quality of our manufacturing processes and so in 2015, we passed the most demanding aeronautical industry audits, allowing us to maintain the excellence of the pieces and the trust of our customers.

On one hand, we do all this in the factory of Illescas that manufactured 32,844 pieces in 2015, representing 10.98% more than in 2014, obtaining a total of 27 programs. And on the other hand, also in the factory of Airport, in Jerez de la Frontera, which has manufactured 2,756 pieces in 2015, 275.6% more than the previous year, achieving 18 programs of manufacturing.

Our industrial outlook is even better for next year. We will manufacture more parts, both in number and model. We want to thank all those who have made this year's aviation record for us. On our part, we maintain our strong commitment to provide excellent service to our customers and continue to grow as a company.
