As an MRO provider, Lufthansa Technik Brussels in Belgium has specialized in the maintenance, repair and overhaul of short-haul and long-haul aircraft. The company became a 100 percent subsidiary of Lufthansa Technik AG in 1999 following the acquisition by the latter of a majority shareholding in Belgian aircraft maintenance company Belgavia Maintenance N.V.
The company, which has a central location at Brussels airport, has a total capacity of 7,350 square meters of floor space, 6,100 square meters of which is taken up by the hangar in which up to four short-haul aircraft can be maintained at the same time. Immediately next door to the hangar is the 1,250 square meters logistics area, which is primarily used to store parts and manage inventories on behalf of customers. Around 70 highly skilled staff perform all the relevant technical work all around the clock. To enable it to support customers at Brussels Charleroi airport as well as at the main Brussels Zaventem airport, Lufthansa Technik Brussels has built up another maintenance station to the south of the Belgian capital city.
Lufthansa Technik Brussels offers aircraft maintenance (line maintenance, including A checks) for the Airbus A319, A320, A321, A300-600, A310-300, A330 and A340 and for the Boeing 737-300/-400/-500 (Classic) and 737-600/-700/-800 (NG, Next Generation) families, the 777, the 747-200, the 747-400 as well as the 767 and several Embraer types. In addition, it performs structural work, engine and landing gear changes, logistics services and modifications, and also, since September 2008, installation of the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) for the Airbus A320 series. The company operates under Lufthansa Technik's operating license from the German Civil Aviation Authority (LBA) and is certified under the EASA Part 145 regulations. It also plans to obtain licenses for a number of Embraer aircraft types, and is already licensed for the Embraer ERJ 135 and ERJ 145.
Availing itself of the latest technical standards, lean production processes and efficient quality management, Lufthansa Technik Brussels has established itself as an aircraft maintenance company in Europe. Due to its extremely low cost structure, Lufthansa Technik Brussels will also be in a position to support European low-cost carriers and regional cargo companies as customers in the future.
