HAECO Engine Services (Xiamen), a member of the HAECO Group specialising in the overhaul, testing, and component repair services for GE90 series engines, has begun construction on a new facility aimed at increasing capacity by Q4 of 2026.

The new facility is expected to support the overhaul, testing, and repair of additional engine types, including the GP7200, CF34-10A, and GE9X, while also providing more space for maintenance and storage.

Located next to the existing Phase 2 building, the new facility will cover 4,420 sqm, with a total floor area of 10,015 sqm across two levels.

In line with HAECO’s commitment to sustainability, the facility will feature energy-efficient LED lighting and a solar panel system to reduce environmental impact.

Sandra Nieuwenhuijzen, group director of component and engine services at HAECO, said: “As the aerospace industry continues to grow and evolve, this facility reflects our commitment to innovation and sustainable development, enabling us to scale up support for our customers across a diverse range of product lines.

“This strategic investment underscores HAECO’s long-term vision to support the evolving demands of the global aviation industry with cutting-edge solutions and operational excellence.”

Simon Smith, director and general manager of HAECO Engine Services (Xiamen), said: “Since our establishment in 2008, we have continually adapted to meet our customers’ needs, including the completion of our Phase 2 building in 2011. The new facility will enhance our capacity and enable us to develop capabilities for both current and next-generation engines.”

HAECO Engine Services (Xiamen) is a licensed GE90 Service Provider and holds the GE90 GE Branded Service Agreement (GBSA) in Asia. In 2024, HAECO extended the GBSA and Offload Agreement for GE engines through 2040 and secured a position within the global MRO network for the GE9X engine.
