ASG Aerospace, which will use the event to formally showcase its newly launched capabilities on an international stage.

ASG Aerospace has been recognised by Airbus with a “Going the Extra Mile” award, underlining the group’s role in supporting performance and resilience across the global aerostructures supply chain.

For ASG Aerospace, the  Farnborough International Airshow is a strategic opportunity to present the strength of its manufacturing footprint across the UK and Germany, and to engage directly with customers operating at the highest levels of the global aerospace supply chain.

Workforce resilience was another key theme throughout the day, reflecting ongoing skills shortages and increasing demand for adaptability within manufacturing teams.

It’s a perspective that cuts through the noise around industrial transformation. Advanced manufacturing, in this context, is defined not by how much technology is deployed, but by how intelligently it is applied.

Taken together, these orders represent a coordinated signal from major global operators that capacity growth, fleet modernisation and efficiency gains remain firmly on the agenda.

The solar installation is now live, quietly generating power, supporting production and reinforcing the long-term foundations of the business.

ASG Aerospace has welcomed GE Aerospace’s €110 million investment across its European manufacturing sites, describing it as a clear vote of confidence in both the aerospace sector and its supply chain.

At its facility in Bromborough on the Wirral, ASG AMF Engineering manufactures large aluminium vacuum chambers and complex machined structures used in semiconductor fabrication equipment and advanced scientific systems.

Producing these components requires careful control throughout the manufacturing process.

Across its UK sites, ASG Aerospace has deliberately created mirrored manufacturing capability. Machines with the same specifications, programming architecture and machining envelope installed in different facilities. If one site experiences disruption, production can move. Customers keep receiving parts. Programmes stay on track.

Bremerhaven has always been a city shaped by making things—ships, instruments, technology and trade routes that connected Germany to the world. The story of ASG Bremerhaven mirrors that history, evolving alongside the city while remaining firmly anchored within it.

Next year will mark 60 years since Arrowsmith was incorporated, a moment that reflects both the company’s heritage and its continuing evolution. For Jason Aldridge, the anniversary is less about looking back and more about preparing for the future.

“Reaching sixty years will be a proud moment, especially knowing where the business started,” he says. “But aerospace is always about the next challenge.”

On International Women’s Day 2026, ASG Aerospace is recognising the women whose expertise and leadership are shaping the business across its operations.

From production engineers and quality specialists to operations leaders, technicians and apprentices, women across the business play key roles in delivering the aerospace components and systems customers rely on.

The global aerospace industry is accelerating again. Production rates are rising, order books stretch years ahead, and quality expectations continue to intensify. This renewed pressure is emerging at the same moment the world enters what KPMG calls the Intelligence Age. In its January 2026 Global Tech Report, based on insights from 2,500 technology leaders across 27 countries, KPMG notes that 79 percent of organisations now sit within the top three maturity stages across major technologies.

Rolls-Royce Holdings plc has reported a powerful set of full-year results for 2025. The underlining the pace and depth of its multi-year transformation programme has reinforced confidence across the global aerospace supply chain.

There are now fewer than 150 days until the Farnborough International Airshow returns from 20-24 July 2026 - and ASG Aerospace is preparing to showcase its capabilities on one of the UK’s most prominent industry platforms.

Latest data from ADS has confirmed that 2025 marked the strongest year for aircraft deliveries since 2018 — and early 2026 figures from the world’s largest OEMs reinforce that trajectory. According to ADS, 1,411 aircraft were delivered in 2025, a 25% increase on 2024.
