Our advanced composite panels form the interior skin on many military helicopters:
This knowledge and expertise is being used on the next generation of rotary aircraft platforms where we are developing interior panels with:
We specialise in highly complex, structural composite assemblies.
The air you breathe on the newest generation of aircraft – B787, A380, 777/777x to name a few – move through complex, structural, composite duct and plenum assemblies.
You may be comfortable while boarding your flight if there is an auxiliary power unit running with Parker Meggitt composite components.
This is one safety system that is hopefully never employed, but if it is it may depend on critical Parker Meggitt composite components.
On the Lynx helicopter we converted metal engine cowlings to carbon/honeycomb composite structures. These structures are robust enough to hold two mechanics and tools when the cowls are in their maintenance position.
We help light the way for refuelling on the newest Air Force tanker with composite exterior lighting covers; and the cargo bays of aircraft are lit using Parker Meggitt composite components.
We proudly design and manufacture our composite structures in Baltimore (MD) and Rockmart (GA) in the USA, and Shepshed and Stevenage in the UK.
Our composite solutions can be found on a vast range of commercial and military platforms.
For example: A380, B737/737NG, B737MAX, B747, B767, B777, B777x, B787-8, -9, -10, E-170/175, E-190/195, E-175 E2, E-190/195 E2, F-35, KC-46a, P-8
Airframe composite programmes include: A350, C919, B-1B, C-130, F-22, AH-64, S-92, V-22
Engine/airframe composite programmes include: A320 family, A330/340, A400M, C-series, CRJ-700/900/1000, MC-21, Challenger, Citation Longitude, Falcon, Gulfstream 280, Hondajet, Learjet, Legacy and F-18
