Satys Aerospace invests in brand new energy-efficient painting room to meet ATR’s needs.

The new facility has been entirely designed to optimise energy consumption and reduce the carbon footprint of ATR aircraft’s painting cycles.

ATR’s Chief Executive Officer, Stefano Bortoli, and Christophe Cador, CEO of SATYS, signed a new 15-year contract based on a yearly volume commitment. This long-term agreement with SATYS, world’s leading aircraft painting supplier, is a clear demonstration of ATR’s confidence in the future and strong ties with its local partners.

This commitment will enable SATYS to resume work on painting room LS06 (in Blagnac, France) – started before the COVID health crisis, for an investment of around €12 million. The new facility – scheduled to become operational at the end of 2022 – has been entirely designed to reduce aircraft painting cycles whilst optimising energy consumption, to keep carbon emissions to a minimum.

Up to 90% of the air inside the room will be recycled to limit heat production and a specific emphasis will be put on isolation to limit heat loss. Air flows will be reduced – by approximately 25% – as well as water, electricity and gas consumption. Thanks to variable speed drives, it will be possible to adapt the power of technical equipment in real time to further reduce electricity consumption. Finally, the surface of the building itself has been optimised to limit its ground footprint and impact on existing green spaces.

Through this initiative, ATR affirms its desire to support the development of its region, by investing over the long term in local businesses and boosting the entire chain of partners and subcontractors – always working towards a more sustainable aviation industry.

This partnership confirms the recovery of the aviation sector and the high demand for general aviation services. It also underlines our position in attracting the top global players in the aviation sector to establish their presence in the emirate and operate in an integrated, economic environment, where they can connect with international markets. We will spare no effort to solidify and cement Dubai’s position on the world aviation map.”

Satys Aeropace acquires SPI Group.

Satys, based in Toulouse, announced the acquisition of the Group SPI (Société de Peinture Industrielle) based in Malville near Saint-Nazaire (France), to strengthen its market position in the aircraft painting, sealing and surface treatment. A new European leader in surface protection for both sub-assembly and aeronautic parts will emerge from the regrouping of the companies.

With over 40 years of experience in this business, SPI is very active in the aeronautics industry and has many long-standing partners such as Airbus, Airbus Atlantic, Thalès, Safran, Dassault and Daher. It had a turnover of 40 million euros in 2019 vs 25 million euros in 2021(due to the crisis). It employs 500 people at 13 industrial sites in France as well as in Portugal and Morocco. SPI is also present in the space, rail and naval markets. This acquisition will significantly increase the size of Satys Aerospace: the group will have a turnover of 165 million for a full year post-Covid and will have more than 2200 employees in the world with 1300 in France. Satys will thus increase its number of sites from 32 to 45 in 13 countries.

“The integration of SPI within Satys sets the path for a new European leader”

“Our activities are complementary, in both know-how and geographically,” points out Christophe Cador, founder and CEO of the Satys Group. “Like those in Satys, the SPI teams are highly qualified, and its management will maintain its role within Satys ensuring our shared objectives, notably on time delivery, capacity to innovate and reduction of the environmental footprint of our industrial activities. This regrouping of know-how and references, in France and internationally, is also part of a dynamic process of consolidating the industry. In the context of the current economic recovery and the perspective of strong growth of the industry, the integration of SPI within Satys sets the path for a European leader in surface protection aircraft components.” ».The CEO of Satys had already confirmed his ambition to grow in September 2021 when he announced the cash injection undertaken with Ace Capital Partners (subsidiary of Tikehau Capital), Crédit Mutuel Equity, Bpifrance, l’IRDI Capital Investissement and a group of regional investors led by Crédit Agricole Régions Investissement (CARVEST).
