Airbus will be drawing on the Bodo Möller Chemie Group’s expertise in adhesives for aerospace applications in the future. Having entered into force this year, the supply contract for delivering innovative adhesive technology systems to several international plants marks a significant strategic milestone in the expansion of Bodo Möller Chemie’s aerospace activities. The company’s EN 9120 certifications worldwide guarantee high quality and process standards.

The aerospace industry is one of the world’s most strictly regulated and technologically demanding sectors. Safety, complete traceability, and compliance with clearly defined quality standards play a crucial role in the industry, particularly when it comes to selecting high-performance adhesive solutions. The Bodo Möller Chemie Group will help meet these high requirements in the future by supplying an extensive adhesive technologies portfolio to several international Airbus plants. The collaboration is based on the broad certification of Bodo Möller Chemie sites in accordance with EN 9120, many years of partnerships with leading suppliers such as Dow, DuPont, Elkem, Henkel, and Huntsman and on the company's worldwide presence with branches in more than 40 countries. (The U.S. branch is in Atlanta, Georgia.)

EN 9120 certification is an essential prerequisite for supplying this sector. The standard guarantees end-to-end traceability, process reliability, and standardized processes, essential requirements for a global cooperative partnership with manufacturers like Airbus. Bodo Möller Chemie already holds this accreditation at multiple locations, including in Germany, France, Switzerland, Italy, Israel, China, India, and Mexico. Fifteen further international branches are currently undergoing the certification process.

“The collaboration with Airbus confirms our consistent focus on quality, certification, and technical excellence in the aerospace sector. Our teams worldwide have worked intensively in recent years to tailor processes, logistics, and expertise precisely to the high demands of this industry. This supply agreement is the result of these joint efforts and a strong signal for our continued international growth,” emphasizes Frank Haug, CEO of the Bodo Möller Chemie Group.

"The highest standards and a stable global supply are crucial for the industry. It is precisely in this challenging environment that we can leverage our strengths: a broad-based, high-performance portfolio, in-depth technical expertise, and internationally positioned teams that implement complex requirements reliably and in partnership. The supply agreement with Airbus underscores our long-term commitment to the aerospace sector and our role as a reliable global partner," explains Lionel Breuilly, Managing Director Bodo Möller Chemie West Europe, North Africa, India, Middle East, APAC.

The Bodo Möller Chemie Group has used its long expertise to assist clients with challenging applications in the aerospace field for years, developing tailored solutions for a wide range of complex processes. The agreement with Airbus reinforces this strategic approach and strengthens the company's market position in the international aerospace industry in the long-term.
