Cavotec lands EUR11.5M in orders for innovative aircraft utility systems in the
UAE, the UK and the US

Global engineering group Cavotec has secured significant orders to supply its
innovative aircraft systems to major airports in the United Arab Emirates, the
UK and the US. The EUR 11.5 million contract wins, all received and confirmed
in the past two months, underline the continued success of the Group’s advanced
integrated aircraft utility systems at applications worldwide. 

“With the International Air Transport Association expecting airlines to take
delivery of some 1,700 aircraft in 2017, and a 3.7 per cent annual average
growth in air travellers, operators are looking for ways to ease bottlenecks
and service aircraft efficiently. Cavotec’s solutions decrease aircraft
turnaround time by integrating utility services into single solutions such as
pop-up pits,” says Juergen Strommer, Chief Operating Officer of Cavotec’s
Airports & Industry business unit. 

“We continue to see robust demand for our aircraft servicing systems at
airports worldwide, and it’s an area on which we continue to focus,” adds Gary
Matthews, Market Unit Director, Airports. 

For Dubai International Airport’s Concourse C, Cavotec has been awarded a
turnkey contract to design, supply, install, test and commission Super Cool DX
Pre-conditioned Air (PCA) units. 

In the US, the orders include fuel hydrant systems for applications at Louis
Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, Seattle-Tacoma International
Airport, Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and La Guardia Airport. 

Cavotec is to also supply its latest Series 2500+ 400Hz converters and hatch
pit systems to the VT Mobile Aerospace Engineering Hangar (VTMAE) at Pensacola
Internaional Airport in Florida. Deliveries are due to start later this year,
and are scheduled for completion by early 2018. 

In the UK, Cavotec has secured a major advanced aircraft refuelling order with
the end user in the US, deliveries of which are schedulded to be completed in
the third quarter of 2017. 

Cavotec is a leading systems integrator of advanced ground support equipment in
the global airports sector. The Group’s in-ground technologies minimise tarmac
congestion, improve operational efficiency and reduce environmental impact at
terminals, remote stands and hangars at commercial applications worldwide.
