Qantas becomes newest Cyclean Engine Wash customer

Lufthansa Technik AG has signed a Cyclean Engine Wash contract with Qantas, whereby engine cleaning will be carried out on CFM56-7 engines of the Qantas Boeing 737 fleet. The program began successfully in January. Engine washing is initially taking place exclusively in Melbourne, Australia. The engine wash is being carried out by 145 Aviation Services, part of the Permagard Group. Lufthansa Technik commissioned this Australian MRO company as service provider for Cyclean Engine Wash in Melbourne at the start of 2016. 145 Aviation Services has been operating a mobile Cyclean system since then. The vehicle can also be flexibly deployed at other locations in the Melbourne area.
