Constellium N.V. has signed a multi-year supply agreement with the American aerospace manufacturer and spaceflight services company, Blue Origin on April 4. Constellium will supply advanced aluminium products and solutions to the privately held company for its launch vehicle programs. The contract will seal Constellium’s position as a trusted supplier in the space industry.
“We expect this new contract to strengthen our position as a key supplier of innovative aluminium solutions for the space industry, and as an industry leader more generally,” said Ingrid Joerg, President of Constellium’s Aerospace and Transportation business unit.
“It helps demonstrate our know-how and expertise to provide tailored products and spurs our ambition to pursue growth in servicing our partners in the space industry,” he added.
The contract seals a new collaboration between the two companies for the supply of Airware product range from Constellium. Constellium’s Airware range of aluminium plates and sheets are designed to cater to high-performance aerospace and space applications. The plates and sheets will be used for Blue Origin’s massive orbital rocket, New Glenn.
Constellium’s plants at Issoire, France, and Ravenswood, West Virginia, US that specialize in the production of Airware plates and sheets, will supply the products to Blue Origin.
