In a landmark announcement at this year’s Farnborough International Airshow, ASG Group, the global aerospace manufacturing conglomerate headquartered in Manchester, has unveiled its largest-ever group order book, marking a significant milestone in the company's history.

The multi-million-pound orders, facilitated through collaborations with major global aerospace OEMs, signify a significant growth for the group in both single aisle and long-range platforms.

With a client list that includes Airbus, Boeing, Collins, Eaton, Moog, Rolls-Royce and Spirit, the company's operations span eight locations across the UK and Germany, specialising in the production of flight control assemblies, engine components, assemblies, and airframe components.

Simon Weston, ASG Group managing director, provided an overview of the company's growth and future direction: "The announcement of our largest-ever order book underscores the effectiveness of our extensive investment program across all eight of our divisions. Our commitment to advancing our technology, enhancing our manufacturing capabilities, and fostering innovation has driven this record growth. This achievement is a clear indication of the strength and synergy within the ASG Group, and it positions us well for continued success in the aerospace sector."

Jason Aldridge, managing director of ASG Arrowsmith, added: "The substantial growth in our order book is a direct result of the wider ASG Group's investment into our business and collective group capability. We have smashed through our £10.5m target for 2024 and plans are now in place to take annual sales past £25m over the next two years. Enhanced infrastructure and state-of-the-art technology have enabled us to scale our operations and meet the high demands of our aerospace clients effectively. Our investment in cutting-edge systems has ensured that we can deliver unparalleled quality and precision, reinforcing our position as a leader in the aerospace sector."

Jeremy Ridyard, managing director at Produmax, said: "The recent surge in orders highlights the advantages of ASG Group’s commitment to investing in cutting edge technology. We’ve won significant orders which will propel the business well into the future. The advancements in physical and digital twinning and automation across our sites have been part of our order winning criteria and underpinning our wider group resilience. These investments have empowered us to offer superior solutions to our aerospace clients, cementing our reputation for excellence and innovation."

As ASG Group continues to expand its capabilities and client base, the company remains committed in its mission to its manufacturing locations through innovation, quality, and excellence. The company says the announcement at FIA 2024 highlights its growth and reinforces its role in shaping the future of aerospace manufacturing.
