Lufthansa Technik Aero Alzey (LTAA), a subsidiary of Lufthansa Technik AG, has taken a significant step towards expansion by inaugurating a new 1,500-square-meter hangar on September 15th. This new three-level building, situated within LTAA’s existing premises, is a strategic move aimed at enhancing the company’s production capabilities and addressing the rising demand for engine overhauls. It will serve as a temporary storage space for engine parts and large tools while allowing LTAA to process a greater number of engines simultaneously.
Currently, LTAA employs 600 skilled workers, slightly fewer than before the recent crisis. However, Gruber expressed their aim to gradually return to pre-crisis staffing levels, with the potential for further staff expansion depending on future strategic decisions. LTAA’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its installation of a photovoltaic system across the entire roof area. This initiative aims to optimize energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, aligning with the company’s green efforts.
