- About
- Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Ried im Innkreis, Upper Austria, FACC designs, develops, produces and maintains lightweight composite systems for aviation. It is listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange and describes itself as technology partner to all major aircraft manufacturers, with more than 35 years of expertise across aerostructures, engines and nacelles, and cabin interiors. The company claims an aircraft carrying FACC technology takes off every second. FIVE BUSINESS AREAS: Aerostructures, Engines & Nacelles, Cabin Interiors, Advanced Air Mobility, and MRO Services. UAS RELEVANCE. The company states directly that it designs, produces and maintains lightweight systems for passenger aircraft, executive jets, and passenger and logistics DRONES. Advanced Air Mobility is a named business area, not an aspiration. This is the specific reason FACC belongs on a drone map rather than only on a general aerospace one. CUSTOMERS named on the company's own site: Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, Collins Aerospace, Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, Dassault Aviation, Embraer and Satair. FACC is one of only ten companies worldwide to have received Embraer's Supplier of the Year Award and sits on the Embraer Supplier Advisory Council. FINANCIALS. 2025 revenue of EUR 984.4 million, up 11.3%, with EBIT of EUR 42.3 million. Q1 2026 revenue of EUR 258.2 million, up 11.8% year on year, EBIT more than doubled to EUR 9.7 million, headcount 4,017 FTE against 3,896 a year earlier. All production processes are targeted to be carbon-neutral by 2040; space heating already runs on geothermal and heat recovery alongside an on-site photovoltaic system. FACC is a consortium partner in the AIRlabs Austria UAS test network.
- Relevancy
- Austria's largest aerostructures manufacturer, building the lightweight composite structures aircraft are made from — and it states explicitly that this includes passenger and logistics drones. Advanced Air Mobility is one of its five business areas, and it is a partner in the national drone test network.
