Lufthansa Technik Philippines, one of the biggest providers of
aircraft maintenance services in Asia, is set to further expand its
range of products for airline customers with increased capacity. On
the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the foundation of the joint
venture between Lufthansa Technik AG and the MacroAsia Corporation,
Bernhard Krueger-Sprengel, President and CEO of the company, said that
the number of international customers had increased in an encouraging
manner and that the range of technical services would be further
expanded. "In view of the growth, especially in the Asian market, and our
competitive product, we intend to win new customers not just in the
region. We will be offering new products such as overhaul layovers and
cabin refurbishments designed specifically for low-cost airlines,"
Krueger-Sprengel said. "Lufthansa Technik Philippines is an
outstanding example of a successful joint venture in Asia." Having started up in 2000 with a workforce of 1,300 at Ninoy Aquino
International Airport, today Lufthansa Technik Philippines has 2,700
employees and is an internationally respected MRO provider
specializing in the Airbus A330/340 and the A320 aircraft families. August Wilhelm Henningsen, Chairman of the Executive Board of
Lufthansa Technik AG, underlined: "The Manila operation has become the
Lufthansa Technik Group's most important internationally active
maintenance organization for the overhaul of Airbus aircraft. I would
like to formally thank our joint venture partner, MacroAsia
Corporation, for the professional and successful collaboration and
Philippine Airlines, Lufthansa Technik Philippines' most important
customer, for its trust and tremendous loyalty from the outset.
Without the support of these two companies, the success story of
Lufthansa Technik Philippines would not have been possible." As well as Philippine Airlines and Lufthansa, Lufthansa Technik
Philippines provides aircraft maintenance services for a further 22
airlines. Its aircraft overhaul customers number 24. As
Krueger-Sprengel explained, "Thanks to lean processes and above all to
our highly skilled staff, we have been able to reduce the layover for
an A340 D-check, for example, to 22 days - the best time offered
anywhere in the world - at competitive prices and to the same standard
of quality for which Lufthansa Technik is renowned." In 2004, four years after commencing operations, Lufthansa Technik
Philippines opened a second overhaul line for long-haul aircraft.

for the A320 family and has started repairing engine components. It
