Abu Dhabi, UAE — Strata, the UAE-based aerostructures manufacturing facility, Wednesday announced a new agreement with Pilatus, one of their ongoing flagship partners.
The amended framework agreement with the leading Swiss aircraft manufacturer is set to further cement the collaboration between Pilatus and Strata.
Strata’s operations for Pilatus will be extended to feature 3 WPs for Pilatus PC-12 and PC-24, crafted with Strata’s signature use of Carbon Fiber.
These new additions to Strata’s highly-regarded and innovative production line operations highlight not only the pristine standards at Strata’s core, but will showcase the firm’s technological expertise and use of ground-breaking materials. Central to the work packages manufacturing process will be a number of Autoclave products and Strata’s Hot Press.
The plan, announced today, is to commence the new manufacturing operations in Q1 and Q2 of 2023, with multiple shipments per month fulfilling all requirements – an ambitious plan which demonstrates the level of vision, expertise and mutual trust and respect at the heart of the Strata and Pilatus partnership.
CEO of Strata, Ismail Ali Abdulla, hailed this new phase of collaboration in the aerospace manufacturer’s ongoing success.
“Strata’s growth is centred on the continuing expansion of our expertise and capabilities. This latest project with Pilatus positions Strata as a truly pioneering UAE manufacturer and is an important new chapter for our growing and talented Emirati workforce,” Ali Abdulla said.
CEO at Pilatus Aircraft, Markus Bucher: “This new phase of operations will bring benefits to both firms, and signals the value of an ongoing collaboration which puts quality, expertise and innovation first”.
