Premium AEROTEC starts aircraft parts production at Ghimbav

Premium AEROTEC commences manufacture of aircraft components at the Gimbav factory, situated in Brasov County. According to company information, the production unit is developed on a 60,000-square-metre platform. The new plant will specialize in the production and assembly of metal components for all Airbus series programs (A320 family, A330/A340, A380).

Premium AEROTEC is planning to extend the new production facility with a second construction phase this year. Europe’s leading aerostructures specialist will then employ a workforce of up to 500 at its production facilities. The workload of the new plant in Ghimbav comes largely from orders that had previously been assigned to subcontractors in the euro zone. The Premium AEROTEC facilities are in the immediate vicinity of traditional Romanian aviation company IAR Brasov and Eurocopter’s Romanian subsidiary.

Premium AEROTEC has more than 6,000 employees and generated revenues of EUR 1.1 billion in 2009. The company has production plants in Augsburg, Bremen, Nordenham and Varel in Germany, and in Ghimbav, Brasov County, Romania.
