Safran and Maini Precision Products in LEAP engine contract

Safran Aircraft Engines have contracted with Bengaluru-based Maini Precision Products MPP to manufacture low-pressure turbine (LPT) guide vanes for LEAP engines. Dominique Dupuy, Senior Vice President for Purchasing at Safran Aircraft Engines, and Gautam Maini, Managing Director of Maini Precision Products Limited, signed this ten-year contract, with Bruno Durand, Senior Vice President, Manufacturing & Supply Chain, Safran Aircraft Engines, also in attendance. These sophisticated guide vanes will be manufactured at a new MPP plant now under construction in the Bommasandra Industrial Area in Bengaluru, and will also pave the way for Safran and Maini to examine other opportunities for the manufacture of critical aero-engine parts in India, besides significantly expanding Safran’s presence in India.
