As a partner of manufacturers of aircraft, engines and engine nacelles, FACC is an innovative company in the development and production of advanced components and systems for civil aircraft engines.

When it comes to modern engines, airplane manufacturers are looking for higher eco-friendliness, reduced fuel consumption and optimized performance. FACC can meet these requirements with high-tech engine components made of light, sound attenuating fiber composites.

The increased use of composite materials in engines reduces the weight of the engine and in turn of the airplane itself. Less net weight also means less fuel consumption and higher transport capacity, both of which lead to higher cost-efficiency in flight.

Supply Chain Partner of Rolls-Royce 

Since 2005 FACC has been a Supply Chain Partner of Rolls-Royce and is responsible for the supply of all composite components that are used for their engines for civil aircraft.


High Performance Acoustic Panels for Noise Reduction 

The engine nacelle and engine components significantly influence the acoustic performance of the "aircraft engine" system. The inside surfaces of these components are specially designed or treated to work efficiently as sound attenuators. Honeycomb sandwich structures with perforated inner skins and septa are most frequently used.
