Aerospace

The main challenge for the airline industry is to reduce the engines' fuel consumption and thus also the emissions. Volvo Aero's lightweight technologies are therefore in increasing demand from the large, international engine manufacturers, while the technologies also get new applications in the aerospace industry.
The company is also responsible for the engines of the Swedish Air Force’s Gripen fighters. Volvo Aero also has an aftermarket business that comprises repair and maintenance of select aircraft engines as well as stationary gas turbines.
