Omega Systemes, a Web Industries company – has signed a three-year contract extension with Airbus covering the manufacture, supply and processing of high-precision composite materials. The contract includes material management, cutting services, storage and the delivery of composite parts for major fly and non-fly materials programs. It becomes effective immediately and extends a long relationship that Omega Systems has had with Airbus for another three years. Omega Systemes is a Tier 1 supplier to Airbus. The contract remains in effect until December 31, 2021.
The extended contract covers the A320, A330, A350, A400M, ATR and other programs for Airbus Europe entities requiring fly and non-fly materials, including those for the Airbus Defence & Space and Airbus Helicopters divisions.
Omega Systemes is a precision formatter of flexible thermoplastic composite materials for next-generation aerospace applications.
According to Vice President of Corporate Development for Web Industries Kevin Young, the contract extension was awarded based on Omega Systemes sterling performance during its current contract.
Indeed, for more than 20 years Omega Systemes and Airbus have collaborated on major aeronautics programs with the supply of fly and non-fly materials. Omega Systemes is a supplier of very high reliability and quality products that meet the aeronautic industry's most demanding requirements.
"Chosen by Airbus following a call for tender, this decision demonstrates our ability to meet Airbus's technical, commercial, industrial and quality requirements," said Kevin Young, VP Corporate Development for Web Industries.
Directeur General, Omega Systems Jean-Louis Bretin adds: "Airbus will benefit from the synergies offered by the new entity formed by Omega Systemes and Web Industries for all ongoing and future aeronautical programs. At the same time, Omega Systemes will be increasing its production capacities."
