Sabena technics has been selected by Airbus for the construction and operation of a painting facility in Toulouse for Airbus A320 aircraft.
The two painting hangars, which will replace existing equipment, will be built side by side on the Toulouse Blagnac airport. They will be equipped with suitable dockage and state-of-the-art vertical ventilation system for an operation start-up scheduled in late 2014.
With the support of its current painting subsidiaries in Dinard and Bordeaux, the Toulouse installations will be able to accommodate and paint 80 Airbus A320 aircraft per year within the 15-year long-term contract signed with Airbus.
