Paris Air Show

With 16,000 employees across 12 countries, our technologies and products are found on 90% of today’s aircraft. We support both civil and defense platforms with advanced aerostructures, engine systems, electrical wiring solutions and transparencies— and play a significant role in the engine aftermarket, helping keep fleets flying efficiently and reliably.

In the past years, our teams have made major progress across several flagship R&D programmes for the next generation of aircraft and aero-engines:

• Progress in the H2GEAR hydrogen propulsion initiative
• Delivery of spar demonstrators to Airbus under the SusWings program
• Manufacture of the largest known thermoplastic aerostructure for the multifunctional fuselage demonstrator
• Contributions to Advanced Air Mobility platforms like Vertical VX4 and Joby with structural and EWIS solutions
• Researching and developing product and process innovations for electrical wiring in support of more sustainable aviation. This includes technologies to safely distribute high electrical power loads to (hybrid) electric drivetrains
• Expansion of our additive fabrication capabilities in Sweden and the US
• Collaborating with partners in developing next-generation aero engines such as RISE and the new GTF

These efforts reflect our deep commitment to decarbonising aviation — and to working with partners across the global ecosystem to accelerate change.

At the Paris Air Show, we look forward to connecting with customers, suppliers, partners, and peers.
