Rakaiz Ground Services

Rakaiz Ground Services (RGS) provides aircraft exterior cleaning in Saudi Arabia. It cleans aircraft with products and equipment approved for Airbus and Boeing aircraft. It describes the work as a type of aviation maintenance.

The company says exterior cleaning is a key maintenance task, not just a matter of looks. It says dirt and contaminants cause drag, and that cleaning restores smooth airflow. Removing salt, chemicals and de-icing fluids helps prevent corrosion. A clean aircraft also protects the brand image of the airline.

RGS uses automated washing systems. These semi-autonomous rigs give even pressure and coverage and protect sensitive sensors. It also uses electrostatic spray, where charged cleaning particles wrap around curved surfaces with less chemical use. Its cleaning agents are aviation-grade and biodegradable.

The company follows international best practices and Saudi-approved quality standards. Its aim is to keep fleets looking professional, raise operational readiness and support long-term aircraft performance. It says its work meets all Saudi environmental regulations. It also works with an expert ground crew.

RGS reports results of 40% faster turnaround, 25% lower operating maintenance costs and 60% water savings compared with traditional washing.

The company's vision is to become the main provider of aircraft exterior cleaning and appearance care in Saudi Arabia. It sets out a four-year plan. Year one is a fleet evaluation and pilot. Year two is full roll-out of automated systems across hubs. Year three is data-based refinement and crew training. Year four is next-generation robotics and coatings.

Future plans include autonomous cleaning robots, AI inspection to find micro-fractures during the wash, nano-ceramic dirt-repellent coatings and zero-emission operations. Airlines can get in touch through the contact form, and RGS says it replies within 24 hours.
