To meet growing customer demand, improve turnaround times and support a broader range of engine programmes, ITP Aero has announced that the company will be opening a new building of 120,000 square feet located close to BP Aero’s current site and Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.
ITP Aero acquired BP Aero in February 2024, establishing a presence in the United States, and the company says this expansion is another step in ITP Aero’s strategy to grow its global aftermarket business through targeted investments, broader repair capabilities and a stronger international MRO network.
The facility is expected to more than double the company’s current component repair footprint, becoming fully operational at the end of 2026.
Alan Jones, Executive Vice President of MRO at ITP Aero, said: “This expansion strengthens ITP Aero’s position in the U.S. aftermarket and reflects the direction of our MRO growth strategy. By increasing capacity in component repair we are reinforcing our ability to support customers today while preparing for the requirements of newer platforms.”
More advanced repair capabilities of CFM, CF6, CF34 and GE90 engine components will be offered at the new facility, as well as new capabilities in support of the growing demand on the LEAP, GTF and GEnx engines.
