The UK aerospace industry is the second-largest in the world behind the US. Freight solutions need to navigate global supply chains, different tiers of manufacturing, and such varied subsectors as civil aviation, military and defence, MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul) support systems, unmanned aircraft systems (drones), even commercial space exploration and tourism. IFL has been transporting and handling aerospace components since 1989 so we understand the challenges and complexity involved in this multifaceted sector.
Oversized freight, sensitive equipment that requires careful handling, and hundreds of aircraft components needing to be shipped, stored and distributed all over the world can all present logistical challenges for original equipment manufacturers and their suppliers. A trusted partner is key to overcoming these. IFL’s bespoke aerospace solutions and sector experience mean we’re trusted by many UK-based aerospace manufacturers to deliver their goods safely, on time and wherever in the world they need to go.
