ENGLAND - The State of Querétaro and Airbus Helicopters signed, during the first day of the Farnborough Air Show, a cooperation agreement to expand Airbus' industrial activities and new production processes in Mexico.
This agreement will allow Airbus to increase the industrial capacity of its manufacturing plant in the state.
This industrial expansion and new processes will contribute to the increase in Airbus' single-aisle commercial aircraft production and will increase the workforce to around 800 employees by the end of the decade.
The spatialization of the plant is the manufacture of aircraft doors using state-of-the-art, high-tech machinery, including a new riveting center for drilling and riveting the exterior cladding to the door structures and a high-precision drilling machine to install the door hinge to the fuselage.
Marco Antonio Del Prete Tercero, Secretary of Sustainable Development of Querétaro, on behalf of Mauricio Kuri González, Governor of the State, and Laurent Mazoué, Executive Vice President of Operations of Airbus Helicopters, signed the cooperation agreement during the Farnborough International Airshow in the United Kingdom.
“Today marks an important milestone for both the State of Querétaro and Airbus Helicopters with the expansion of our industrial plant, as part of the transformation of our global supply chain, but also to meet the growth of Airbus' single-aisle commercial aircraft,” Laurent Mazoué, Airbus Helicopters' Executive Vice President of Operations said.
