It’s about decreasing risk.
You produce sophisticated and advanced aviation equipment. Make sure it’s protected with the best packaging solution available.
Damage Rate Reduction
In the world of aviation, the true cost of a part damaged in transit can be enormous. Yet companies routinely suffer a 3-5% damage rate on their inbound parts. The damage rate in avionics and electronics is even higher at 5-10%.
Expertise
Our experienced staff will examine your entire process to help decrease your overall costs. All Nefab packaging is right-designed to protect the product, eliminate damage in transit, reduce shipping costs and simplify access for the end-user.
Successful Past Performance
Whether it’s critical production parts or complete aircraft, Nefab has supported both commercial and defense aviation companies for decades. This gives us a deeper insight into the common problems that sensitive products experience in transit, as well as the rigid quality standards required in the aerospace industry.
Aerospace Specialization
We specialize in packaging aerospace parts and aircraft assemblies, missiles and weapons, landing gear, motors, helicopter components, navigation, measuring and control instruments, avionics and electronics, defense and space equipment, and an enormous variety of parts and spares. We can also fabricate closed loop boxes and totes to ferry parts between various steps in the manufacturing process.
Commercial Best Practices
Nefab keeps up-to-date on aerospace mandates as well as military and ASTM specs. In today’s just-in-time world, rejected parts can add costly delays to a production schedule and cause expensive AOG situations.
