EirTrade Aviation, the mature technical management and asset trading company, has augmented its dismantling capability with the addition of engine disassembly. The capability, which is available at EirTrade’s facility in Dublin, will complement its existing aircraft disassembly activities which are based in the company’s AFRA-accredited facility in Knock, West Ireland.
“The introduction of the engine disassembly facility in Dublin will enable us to enhance the organisation’s end-of-life product offering to the market and become a complete end-of-life solution provider,” comments Lee Carey, VP Asset Management at EirTrade Aviation. “This vertical integration strategy will enable EirTrade to mitigate third-party and logistical costs and enable the organisation to gain access to material quicker to support our global client base.”
Carey has confirmed that the initial engine disassembly will be carried out under an agreement with Lufthansa Technik by Lufthansa-trained engineers who will be responsible for disassembly of the first eight engines in EirTrade’s order book, after which all future work will be carried out by the company’s own engineers.
