Aero-Sense

Aero-Sense supplies aviation chemicals from Roeselare in Belgium. It serves aircraft owners, FBOs and airlines of every size, and customers can order through an online shop or ask for a quote.

The company makes insecticides for aircraft. These products help stop mosquitoes and other insects travelling between countries by air, which limits the spread of diseases such as malaria, Zika and dengue. The aerosols can treat both the cabin and the cargo hold. Aero-Sense designs them to follow World Health Organization advice on aircraft disinsection. The range includes products based on phenothrin, permethrin or a mix of the two. One is meant for use in flight, one for use before flight and one for cargo. Some carry AMS 1450 or Boeing BSS7434 approval and are authorised under EU and GB biocidal rules.

Aero-Sense also offers inflight hygiene products. These include inflight cleaning products, hand hygiene products and cabin air fresheners. For cabin care, the company sells interior cleaners that keep cabins hygienic and help interior materials last longer. It also sells leather care products. Its exterior cleaners are made for the fuselage, wings and landing gear.

De-icing and anti-icing is another main line. Aero-Sense supplies chemicals to prevent ice and to remove it. They cover aircraft de-icing, runway de-icing, fuel anti-icing and general de-icing. The users include general aviation, business aircraft, runways and aprons. The maintenance range covers de-icing boot care and specialty chemicals. It also includes products to restore, protect, lubricate, rejuvenate and clean, made by industry brands.

Production is based in the EU, mainly in Roeselare. The company says it does not outsource to low-cost countries and uses only European raw materials. This gives it close control of quality and makes it easier to meet EU rules. Its supply chains are short and its suppliers are close to home, which helps it keep products in stock. It also works with social enterprises in the local area to lower its impact on the environment.

Every delivery comes with the relevant certificates and follow-up after the sale. A full product catalogue is available to download. Aero-Sense offers information in English, French, German and Spanish. It also shares guidance for airlines on aircraft disinsection within the European Economic Area.
