ST ENGINEERING'S aerospace sector is leveraging new technologies and growth areas to maintain its edge amid intensifying competition and a more challenging operating environment.
While the long-term outlook for the aerospace sector remains positive, fuelled by drivers such as an expanding global aircraft fleet, headwinds remain. Jet fuel prices have surged some 40 per cent year-on-year, eating into airline profits. In addition, new aircraft such as the Airbus A350 and Boeing 787, which are made of less corrosive composite materials, tend to require less maintenance work than older models and can go for longer periods without heavy checks.
