July 2018 – Liebherr-Aerospace will include Used Serviceable Materials (USM) as part of its services to customers. USM by Liebherr will be available across the worldwide network of the company and will be centrally managed from Liebherr-Aerospace’s Dubai Service Center.
Liebherr-Aerospace will source Liebherr systems and equipment from aircraft destined for dismantling. The company’s worldwide network of service centers will then release these units with appropriate airworthiness certification. Serviceable assets will be proposed to the market as alternatives to OEM parts in condition “New”, to help the customers optimize their operational costs when procuring OEM quality services such as replacements in case of high value repairs, exchanges and loans, stock leasing, pool access, stock replenishments, and outright purchase.
