TARMAC Aerosave, the French group specialising in commercial aircraft maintenance, storage, and recycling, has signed a partnership with Aero-Design, an aviation decoration brand. The agreement concerns the development of a range of decorative items made from aircraft parts dismantled by TARMAC Aerosave. This upcycling project is part of a circular economy, giving aircraft parts a new life.

For this new partnership, TARMAC Aerosave sets aside some of the finer parts that are not intended for another market or recycling, so that Aero- Design can give them a new life. This is “upcycling”, creating unique objects and giving them new value.

Founded by an artist who is an aviation enthusiast, Agnès Patrice-Crépin, Aero-Design has made a name for itself by transforming aviation parts into unique ornaments and avant-garde furniture.
