For MRO Management, FL Technics’ chief executive Zilvinas Lapinskas explains how the company navigates the intricacies of seasonal demand and base maintenance dynamics across Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Americas.

In the rather conservative but highly competitive aviation business, staying ahead of the curve is imperative for success. At FL Technics, we have not only embraced this philosophy, but we are also setting the bar for excellence; a goal that can be achieved by balancing the capacity of the company and our results with the demand for solutions from the aviation industry.

Global presence

FL Technics’ international footprint is a testament to our commitment to serving diverse markets.

In Europe, where the aviation industry experiences a pronounced seasonal demand fluctuation, we have honed our strategy to efficiently manage increased workloads during peak travel seasons. Our presence in the Asia-Pacific region allows us to tap into the burgeoning aviation markets of countries like Indonesia with future focus on Australia, where the demand for MRO services is driven by rapid fleet expansion.

In the Americas, we have positioned ourselves to cater to the diverse needs of airlines operating in North and South America, with strategic investments in the Caribbean.

Recent developments: Bali and Punta Cana

We continue to make headlines as a result of our ongoing strategic base maintenance developments.

In the Asia-Pacific region, we have recently announced a groundbreaking collaboration with Angkasa Pura Property to develop a 17,000 square metre MRO hub in Bali. This state-of-the-art facility is poised to enhance our capabilities in the region, providing timely and efficient base maintenance services to airlines operating in and around Bali.

Simultaneously, in the Americas, we are set to establish a significant presence with a 20,000 square metre hangar in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. This underscores our commitment to meeting the growing demand for MRO services in the Americas. The new hangar in Punta Cana is poised to become a key hub for base maintenance, contributing to our goal of providing comprehensive MRO solutions on a global scale.

Ongoing commitment

As the aviation industry evolves, FL Technics remains committed to our clients and partners across the globe, demonstrating ever-growing demand for MRO solutions.

Our success is rooted in leveraging the expertise we’ve gained in Europe and making strategic investments to enter new markets and business areas.

From expanding our footprint in base maintenance to pioneering solutions in aircraft wheels and brakes, FL Technics is not just adapting to change – we are actively driving it.

Our journey is a testament to the resilience of our team and the focus on the quality of our services that defines FL Technics.
