VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation announced today that it has reached an agreement with Bombardier Aerospace, Belfast on commercial and technical aspects required to transfer the current package of titanium wing parts for the CSeries* commercial aircraft from hand forgings to closed die forgings.

In furtherance of the long-term agreement (LTA) in place between the two companies, it has been agreed to significantly extend the current package of work to include additional part numbers in the form of die forgings. An amendment to the current LTA was signed at the Farnborough International Airshow.

Signing of the document is viewed by both companies as an important step towards further development of their mutually beneficial relationship.

The companies are also considering ways to increase cooperation by adding value to the current products and extending the range of products supplied.
