Daher Aerostructures

Daher Aerostructures is a tier-one supplier specialising in the design, manufacture, and assembly of complex airframe components. The organisation operates within the mid-stream of the aerospace value chain, providing integrated structural solutions that combine metallic and advanced composite materials. It maintains a specific focus on weight reduction and aerodynamic efficiency through thermoplastic technologies and automated production lines. The organisation is a long-standing partner to major airframers, providing critical components such as wing fragments, engine nacelles, and fuselage sections. Key programmes include the Airbus A320, A350, and A400M families, as well as structural assemblies for Gulfstream business jets and Boeing commercial aircraft. They also serve as the lead industrial partner for the TBM and Kodiak aircraft lines within their parent group's aircraft manufacturing division. Prospective buyers should verify the specific certification status of individual production sites, particularly regarding NADCAP approvals for composites and special processes. It is necessary to confirm current production rates and lead times for high-volume thermoplastic components, as well as the organisation's capacity for concurrent engineering in new development programmes.
