Syensqo (Brussels, Belgium) has secured a new long-term supply agreement with Airbus (Toulouse, France). Under the contract, Syensqo will continue to supply a broad range of advanced materials from its portfolio including prepregs, resin transfer molding (RTM) resins, adhesives and primers to support Airbus programs across commercial aircraft, space and defense, and helicopter platforms.
The aerospace and defense market is experiencing unprecedented growth, driven by increasing demand for advanced materials that enable efficient manufacturing processes and support ambitious production rates (several related announcements were made at Farnborough 2026). With its global manufacturing network, application development capabilities and deep industry expertise, Syensqo is confident that it is well positioned to partner with OEMs and Tier suppliers to meet these evolving market needs.
Aerospace continues to be an important growth driver for Syensqo, with sustained demand in civil aviation expected to support volume growth in its Composite Materials business throughout 2026. The company is planned to support the MV-75 Cheyenne defense aircraft, while it broke ground at a site in Maryland focused on aerocomposites production support.
