Repainting is a complex and critical operation for MRO Airlines and Third Party MRO. Repainting is important for an airline company image and helps protect the plane’s exterior surfaces. After many years of service, an aircraft will be repainted several times. This operation lasts between 6 to 16 days and mobilizes a huge amount of resources: this is a strategic resource and intensive job.
SOCOMORE offers a wide range of OEM approved synergistic solutions, now available in packages for aircraft repainting operations.
