Among the major challenges facing the aerospace industry is ensuring the ability to accelerate production levels in the most efficient way possible. Henkel’s manufacturing plant in Montornès del Vallès, Spain, is ready.

Henkel opened its new aerospace adhesives manufacturing facility in Montornès, Spain. This dedicated and cutting-edge production site provides valuable production capacity to support aerospace manufacturers and their suppliers.

The rapidly evolving aerospace market calls for a solid supply chain where, from the delivery of incoming raw materials on our receiving dock to the finished product at the customer’s application point, transparency and traceability will remain paramount. 

Balancing high performance and low environmental impact. The aviation industry is committed to delivering sustainable products and services to meet strict regulations and requirements.

Global demand for new aircrafts will be as high of 40,000 units over the next two decades. As the worldwide fleet of commercial airlines doubles by 2035, airlines will need to work with adaptable manufacturers who can guarantee short delivery times, rapid reactivity, efficient logistics supply chain and quality traceability.
