The worldwide Stelia division will include plants in St-Nazaire and Nantes in France. On the contrary, Premium Aerotec in Germany will split up and one part will focus on the large-scale production of smaller parts for aircraft machines.
–
Both Stelia and Premium Aerotec once wanted to sell Airbus, but there were not enough people interested.
–
The reorganization will also affect the plant in Brasov, Romania. There is still a debate about changes in production in Spain, hit hard by the cessation of production of the “superjumba” A380 and the decline in demand for wide-body aircraft.
–
The reorganization was announced two months after Airbus director Guillaume Faury said that aerostructures would be the basis for production. This is related to efforts to design a new fuselage or wings in connection with the decarbonization of flying.
–
The company is discussing changes that will affect 15,000 workers with unions. Airbus also has production facilities in the United Kingdom, but also in China and the USA.
