The Covid crisis that affected the entire aerospace industry\nin 2020 and 2021 had a major impact on Satys Aerospace, a global player in the\npainting of aircraft and aircraft components, which lost 35% of its business\nover this period. The ramp-up of civil and military programs, the growing needs\nof airlines and the development of maintenance activities, as well as the\nintegration of an acquisition made in 2022, enabled sales in 2023 to reach a\nrecord \u20ac190 million, compared with \u20ac110 million in 2021, thanks in particular\nto the very strong commitment of our teams. At the start of the 2024 financial\nyear, the Blagnacbased group is also posting double-digit growth, which should\ncontinue in the years ahead, with an improvement in profitability. Satys\nAerospace, which had 2,400 employees at the end of 2023, plans to recruit 500\npeople for the period 2024-2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Satys Aerospace is currently working on several projects.\n\u201cWe face a number of challenges,\u201d confirms Gr\u00e9gory Mayeur, the group\u2019s General\nManager. \u201cFirst of all, we have to meet the production requirements arising\nfrom the ramp-up of Airbus and Dassault Aviation, whose order books are full\nfor a decade. Never before has the civil and defense aerospace industry experienced\nsuch sustained growth. It’s up to us to meet the demands of these leaders in terms\nof operational performance and on-time delivery.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

North America, the Middle East and Asia are also in the\nsights of Satys Aerospace, which is already present in 13 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A long-standing partner of Airbus (Commercial, Helicopters\nand Defense & Space), Satys counts Dassault, Boeing and ATR among its\nreference customers, as well as many airlines that call on it to renew the\npaintwork on their aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Satys has invested heavily in France, and will continue to\ndo so, with the opening of a long-haul aircraft paint shop in Ch\u00c3\u00a2teauroux in\n2025, following the commissioning in 2023 of an innovative paint shop for ATRs\nand new production lines (Paint and Surface Treatment) for aircraft components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Group also aims to continue diversifying its portfolio.\nIt is working to develop its operating capacity in the United States. \u201cThis\nmarket, the most dynamic in the world, is a very promising growth driver for\nSatys,\u201d says Gr\u00e9gory Mayeur. \u201cOur recognized expertise in aircraft painting\nwill help us to capture significant market share in North America primarily with\nour existing customers AIRBUS and DASSAULT AVIATION, as well as other\ncompanies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We plan on opening three new facilities in North America\nwithin the next eighteen months,\u201d adds Gr\u00e9gory Mayeur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, Satys is also expanding in the Middle East\nand Asia, with the opening of three new paint shops. \u201cWe’re proud of the work\ndone by our teams, who provide high quality industrial services all over the\nworld, both for new aircraft and for those needing to be repainted at the\nrequest of airlines,\u201d says the General Director.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anaphoresis, a major innovation in surface treatment In\naddition to these growth ambitions is the challenge of decarbonization, which\nChristophe Cador has made a priority for Satys Aerospace. As part of a\npartnership signed in 2022 with the Occitanie Region, the Group has committed\nto significantly reducing its CO2 emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An increased offer of painting slots without a flight ferry\nin Toulouse or limited (Ch\u00c3\u00a2teauroux) also has a positive impact on the\nenvironmental footprint of the group’s activities. Furthermore, after\nimplementing an energy-saving measure, the company will be implementing an\nenergy transition plan to recover waste heat from its facilities. \u201cWe’re on course.\nWe’ll have achieved a 30% reduction by 2025, thanks to the investments we’ve\nbeen able to make and the commitment of our employees,\u201d explains Gr\u00e9gory\nMayeur. Keen to be one step ahead of market expectations, the Satys management\nteam wants to set an example in terms of decarbonizing upstream supply chains.\n\u201cIt’s a question of our environmental and social responsibility,\u201d emphasizes\nGr\u00e9gory Mayeur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was this ambition that led Satys to turn to Anaphoresis\nfor surface treatment, the group’s other core business. A first in Europe.\nAfter several years of studies and trials, all conclusive, the decision was\ntaken to equip the Dugny site, near Paris, with a production line using this innovative\ntechnology. This was a real turning point for a business which, until now, had used\ntreatments based on chromates, heavy metals and pollutants. From now on, Anaphoresis\ncan be used to treat aeronautical parts against corrosion, particularly\ncritical ones, in a single application, instead of three for conventional\nchromium VI treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compared with the latter, Anaphoresis will enable the Dugny\nsite to reduce its V.O.C. (volatile organic compound) emissions by 95%, cut\ntreatment cycles by around 50%, reduce costs by 20-30%, and guarantee optimum\nquality. In the near future, all Satys Aerospace surface treatment sites could\nbe using this technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
