Lufthansa Technik Shenzhen expands service offer for China and Asia

Lufthansa Technik Shenzhen (LTS) is expanding its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) offer in the Asia-Pacific region even further: the cornerstone was laid on 18 April for two new LTS buildings at Bao’An International Airport in Shenzhen in southern China, where the company is headquartered. When they are complete, LTS will have doubled its workshop and warehouse capacity from 7,000 to nearly 15,000 m² . The new buildings are scheduled to be finished by the beginning of 2014. As a composite materials specialist, Lufthansa Technik Shenzhen will responded to the increasing demand for technical services for composite materials by installing and commissioning a second large autoclave. Special new test benches already enable the company to work on larger and latest-generation hydraulic and pneumatic components such as those for Airbus A380 or Boeing 787 aircraft.
