Travelers have recently breathed a sigh of relief: The time of airline strikes seems to be over, thankfully. Unperturbed by this, air travel continues to boom anyway, which in turn ensures record orders for aircraft. FACC is also benefiting from this, as the figures for the first quarter show.

FACC's turnover rose to EUR 202.4 million in the first quarter - the growth of 24.4 percent achieved is even above the industry average, according to the aircraft supplier from the Innviertel region, which is benefiting from the growing demand for jets from Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, Comac, Dassault and Embraer, as they are all supplied by FACC. This also led to an increase in profit before taxes - to 9.9 million euros.

Plant expansion in Croatia completed in June
In order to be able to cope with the growing demand, the company managed by Robert Machtlinger is also setting the course: The expansion of the plant in Croatia is continuing as planned. The plant area will be tripled. This should be completed by June.

156 new employees
Staff numbers are also being increased further: 156 employees were brought on board in the first quarter of 2024. The aim is to have 4000 employees worldwide by the end of the year.
