AMAC Aerospace Switzerland is expanding its completion, maintenance, engineering and production services with the acquisition of JCB Aero, a French leader in the luxury design and installation of civil and VIP aircraft interiors.

With more than 25 years of expertise, JCB Aero is a key player within the aircraft cabin interior industry. Its core competences are engineering project and completion services, conception and manufacturing of composites products and interior equipment. 

The company is located near Toulouse in Auch, France, on a private airport with 5,000 sq m of hangar space and 6,127 sq m of workshop and office space. The facility of JCB Aero includes wood, lamination, upholstery and paint workshops. JCB Aero’s success is based on the highly skilled craftsmen dedicated to producing work of the finest quality but also on its high level of engineering modification capacity. This has led to the development of several long-term customer relationships.

“The acquisition of JCB Aero with its experienced and highly skilled craftsmen makes the perfect complement to AMAC Aerospace Switzerland’s operations and core competences,” says Kadri Muhiddin, Group Executive Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, AMAC Aerospace Switzerland.

JCB Aero was founded in 1987 by a craftsman himself, Jean Claude Beaudet, who was the unique shareholder of the company. From the very beginning, he has always been driven by the desire to exceed the customer’s demands and has always been committed to delivering products of the highest quality.

“Manned with experienced professionals, JCB is for sure able to contribute to the future growth of AMAC Aerospace. We are proud to become part of AMAC Aerospace, a group of companies, as one of the leading and most innovative companies in the area of VIP completion/ refurbishment and maintenance services,” says Beaudet.

AMAC is present at the 2016 European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (Ebace), which got under way today in Geneva, Switzerland.
