AviTrader MRO 360: Environmental Concerns Regarding Aircraft Maintenance

Yuriy Bolonny, Environmental Compliance Manager of MAAS Aviation, discusses with Editor David Dundas, how MAAS Aviation is addressing environmental impacts in aircraft painting.

Bolonny states, “We’re focused on staying efficient and not using more materials than necessary as it’s part of our operational culture.

“Where we control the energy supply— such as in Kaunas, Lithuania, and the Netherlands — we have switched to certified 100% renewable electricity contracts.

“Our new hangars are built to the highest energy efficiency standards, and our newest US facility is certified to LEED Gold level— a key milestone in reducing operational emissions.”
