AerFin Limited is a market leading civil aviation parts distributor and lessor, supplying quality serviceable used aircraft parts to the global aviation market. It does this through technically focussed, innovative supply chain solutions aimed at reducing airlines maintenance and operational costs. The business operates over two locations and is headquartered in a 105,000 square foot former General Electric Aero Engine Services facility in Caerphilly where it provides engine leasing, engine disassembly, engine part sales and technical advisory services. AerFin added a second location (Crawley, West Sussex) in September 2015. This is focussed on airframe component sales, 24/7 Aircraft on Ground Support, Cost per Aircraft Landing (CPAL) and Power By the Hour (PBH) programmes. AerFin drives cost savings and efficiencies in the supply chain of its customers by obtaining the majority of its inventory from retired aircraft. In a typical transaction, the engines are dropped from the aircraft and, depending on condition, are either kept whole for lease or sent to the Bedwas facility for disassembly to piece parts. By working alongside select partners, airframe components are removed from the aircraft before the empty hull of the aircraft is environmentally disposed of.
