CEVA Logistics, a third-party logistics provider, and Airbus Helicopters have signed a contract to operate a new regional distribution centre in Asia Pacific.

Airbus Helicopters officially opened the new centre on February 2, 2026, with operational support from CEVA Logistics. The logistics platform is located within Singapore’s Airport Logistics Park, a free-trade zone adjacent to Changi Airport, where CEVA operates more than 18,000 m² of logistics facilities. Designed to serve multi-industry customers with specialised cargo-handling needs, the site also includes temperature-controlled warehousing tailored to Airbus Helicopters’ requirements. These controlled areas are maintained between 5°C and 25°C, with humidity levels kept between 45- and 65%, ensuring the safe handling of sensitive aerospace components.

CEVA brings extensive aerospace logistics expertise, delivering fast and efficient solutions and a full suite of services. These include spare-parts management with dedicated storage systems, 24/7 operations, customs clearance, multimodal transport and robust aircraft on the Ground (AOG) support. The new facility enhances operational flexibility, improving Airbus Helicopters’ responsiveness and customer proximity.

With a presence in 170 countries and aerospace specialists across 25 dedicated AOG desks, CEVA transports around 200 helicopters worldwide each year, alongside hundreds of thousands of associated spare parts. This global reach positions CEVA to support Airbus Helicopters’ ambitious growth plans in Asia Pacific, combining global best practice with deep regional expertise. With the Asia Pacific helicopter market forecast to reach US$24.99 billion by 2030, CEVA is well placed to deliver tailored logistics solutions and operational readiness to support the sector’s accelerating growth.
