Fuelled by great people whose expertise and creativity sets the standards in our industry, we’re inspired by the opportunities to innovate and break boundaries. We’re proud to play a part in protecting the world’s democracies. And we’re committed to putting sustainability at the centre of everything we do, opening up and protecting our planet. With over 16,000 employees across 33 manufacturing sites in 12 countries we serve over 90% of the world’s aircraft and engine manufacturers. There are no limits to where you can take your career.
Material Solutions is a new business area within GKN that industrializes new manufacturing solutions with the ambition to make the aerospace industry more sustainable. By combining GKN's existing knowledge in design and manufacturing with new cutting-edge technology for additive manufacturing, we develop new solutions that require drastically less material than conventionally manufactured aircraft engine components. With the same capability, we design lighter and more functional products with the aim of reducing the climate impact of aviation.
GKN’s successful industrialization of Directed Energy Deposition (DED) and Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) has created significant opportunities to expand the application of additive manufacturing across a broader range of products and customers.
