AerCap Materials

AerCap Materials is the aircraft parts and materials business of AerCap. It distributes airframe and engine material for commercial aircraft and engine makers from the United States.

The company says it has more than 50 years of aftermarket experience and one of the largest inventories in the industry. It reports that it has dismantled more than 600 aircraft, stocks more than 200,000 items and supports more than 850 customers worldwide. A fact sheet is available to download, and clients can log in to an online parts portal.

Its service list is wide. It covers spares distribution, component leasing, aircraft dismantling, AOG support and consignment services. It also covers asset acquisition, asset end of life management and repair management. Other services are initial provisioning, inventory optimisation, component pools, price and availability guarantees, and maintenance and technical support through its facility in Greenwood, Mississippi.

The dismantling site has run for more than 20 years. Parts are removed, identified, received, packed and shipped from one location. The company says this lowers the risk of loss, damage and cross contamination. A work card system tracks customer needs. The company can dismantle many aircraft types and sets a custom work scope for each job. It can also provide status and inventory reports.

The company holds Aircraft Fleet Recycling Association accreditation. It is certified to ISO 9001:2015, AS9120B and ASA-100.

AOG support runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Three stocking locations around the world help get parts to a grounded aircraft quickly. Consignment programmes include no charge recalls and purchase credits, and the company says it adds sales channels for the owner's inventory.

AerCap Materials also buys. It looks for aircraft and inventory in the 737NG, 777, A320, A330 and A340 product lines. It will consider a single part number, a large inventory or a whole aircraft. Offices are listed in Memphis, Tennessee, and in London.
