Sabena technics, a French independent player in the aeronautical maintenance and modifications (MRO) sector, opened its brand-new hangar in Bordeaux, France, on January 21.
Confident in its model in the face of the increase in the European fleet, Sabena technics has decided to invest €25 million (US$27.75million) in the 10,000 m² facility, offering more capacity to its civil and military customers.
“The rapid evolution of the markets in which we operate require constant adaptation of our capabilities and know-how. Aware of these developments, we decided to invest in order to offer our European customers more availability with this new hangar capable of accommodating, as part of maintenance or modifications, large aircraft types such as [the] A350-1000, B777-9X or up to six A320 aircraft simultaneously”, says Philippe Rochet, CEO of Sabena technics.
To support its growth, Sabena technics is also strengthening its recruitment strategy in order to welcome more than 250 new talents each year.
