Sustainability

Environmental responsibility by design. It’s such an integral part of the MAAS Aviation business model that we have a dedicated Environmental Manager to oversee all elements of our sustainability programme.

  • All our facilities are designed to manage waste from our processes responsibly, with waste materials recycled wherever possible.
  • No waste chemicals or contaminated water from washing or water-break testing end up out on the apron, because our facilities have underground sump systems built under the floor of our hangars.
  • Our unique recycling technologies allow us to recover 80% of the solvents we use.
  • Each MAAS Aviation paint shop uses paper and plastic sheeting equivalent to the size of 35 football/soccer pitches every year. All this waste material is fully recycled.
  • All our facilities are ISO 14001 Environmental Management certified.
  • We work with manufacturers to reduce the weight of the aircraft coatings we use, which in turn contributes to a reduction in fuel usage and carbon emissions during the lifetime of the aircraft.
