Jet Aviation has completed the extension and renovation of a new 8,000 m² production center at its maintenance and completion facility in Basel. The center brings the cabinet shop, interiors and finishing shops, and sheet metal shops together in one location.
The new space is comprised of 5,000 m² of renovated space, and an additional 3,000 m² extension. Architectural design and planning for the new production center commenced in mid-2019, with construction beginning later that year. Phase I was dedicated to moving the sheet metal, interior and finishing shops, and was completed in November 2020. Phase II focused on moving the cabinet shop and completing the extension and renovation project.
In line with Jet Aviation’s commitment to employee well-being and sustainability, the center is designed with LED dimmable lighting, a high-pressure vacuum system, dust collector systems, two separate paint cabins, and ventilation units. The center also features 600 m² of leveled assembly and pre-assembly platforms to foster optimal performance.
