Underpinning that growth is a nonnegotiable commitment to quality and compliance. With strict industry standards and increasing regulatory pressures, maintaining the highest levels of quality assurance across the supply chain is not optional. ACL has undergone a complete transformation of its company culture to reflect that reality.“ It is a continuous journey, and we strive to be a little better every single day. That is why we are incredibly proud that, as a direct result of all this hard work, we added the prestigious NADCAP accreditation to our existing AS9100 and AS9110 approvals. It proves that our team can compete at the absolute highest level,” Andrew emphasizes.
As we enter the second half of 2026, Aerotron’ s momentum shows no sign of slowing.“ We are continuing to invest heavily in our people, processes, systems and equipment to sustain our rapid growth,” says Andrew.“ Our new composite presses
have just arrived and the fit-out of our second building is moving at pace as our MRO, fabrication and CNC capabilities come online. On top of expanding infrastructure, we still have an almost completely full order book to deliver.”
Further down the line, Andrew envisions Aerotron taking on challenge after challenge from customers and partners alike, especially as it becomes increasingly well known within the industry. The group has a substantial growth plan it is fully on track to deliver. Having taken on what some in the sector perceive as a problematic composite supply chain, the goal is to remain the partner of choice for best-in-class composite development, manufacturing and repair.“ In five years’ time, I believe we will have all of our new capabilities fully embedded and a team approaching 300 people,” he ends. ■
