Tulsa, Oklahoma – Just two years after beginning production, NORDAM CEO Meredith Siegfried announced shipment of the 70,000th cabin window assembly for the Airbus A320, one of the world’s most widely-used aircraft.
“This notable production milestone for NORDAM also highlights the impressive build rate of the A320 family,” Siegfried said. “We’re delighted to grow with this valued customer’s steady demand for window assemblies and are proud to be responsible for this important aspect of their program.”
Since 2012, NORDAM has been the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of cabin window assemblies for the A320 family of modern single-aisle aircraft made by Airbus, spanning the A318, A319, A320 and A321, as well as the ACJ business jet. Each assembly includes an acrylic outer and inner pane with a rubber-molded seal to hold the two panes together, and is integrated into the airframe during its manufacture.
