MT Aerospace is a global leader in the aerospace industry. As a subsidiary of the international technology group OHB, we develop, manufacture and test essential components for major space programmes, including the European Ariane 6 launch vehicle, the American Space Launch System (Artemis mission) and other international launch systems. Our components are also used in satellites, spacecraft for lunar and Martian missions, space refuelling stations and passenger aircraft. Our customers include globally active companies and system integrators such as ESA, NASA, Airbus, ArianeGroup and Boeing. Using manufacturing technologies that are unique worldwide, we produce high-performance products from metal and fibre composites that are uncompromisingly focused on performance. These include large load-bearing structures, cryogenic tanks, lightweight components, and fuel and pressure tanks that combine maximum load-bearing capacity with minimum weight. We owe our success to the initiative and passion of our employees, who stand for innovation and progress. Our team of around 600 employees at our headquarters in Augsburg, in Bremen and at the European spaceport in Kourou (French Guiana) works every day to actively shape the future of space travel.
