Technical textiles weaver Arville is all set to display its specialist capabilities to UK aerospace manufacturers. It is among a small number of key suppliers selected to take centre stage in the two-week ADS Defence and Aerospace Technology Roadshow this September. Its products are used in aircraft worldwide for range of purposes including fire resistance.

The tour, calling at strategic UK defence and aerospace sites, is an opportunity to present the latest innovations and developments directly to high-level decision makers within the aerospace industry.

Visits are planned to Rolls-Royce in Derby, Leonardo (Selex) in Luton, Thales in Crawley, BAE or Airbus in Bristol, Cobham Mission Systems in Wimborne, Ultra PALS in Cheltenham, Agusta Westland in Yeovil and GE Aviation in Cheltenham.

Arville, which has been weaving technical fabrics for over 60 years, is looking forward to speaking directly with key personnel in research and development, technical and design roles about its capabilities to produce bespoke fabrics – which are engineered to be lighter, stronger and offer increasingly more sophisticated physical characteristics.

The company’s unrivalled expertise in technical textiles has contributed to a well-established reputation as a specialist in the field – with an extensive customer base covering more than 50 countries worldwide.

Andy Smith, group head of marketing at Arville, said: “The ADS Roadshow event is a real opportunity to make supplier resource more accessible to UK aerospace players. We anticipate that our involvement will help lead to further growth and integration of Arville fabrics at the initial design stages of major projects.”

“Decision makers, designers and specifiers from the large players in these sectors are not always aware of just what can be achieved, in terms of textiles developed especially with their application in mind,” Smith said.

Arville has a long established history of working with defence contractors in the aerospace industry, in the design and supply of high-specification fabrics and pre-fabricated textile components, which are used in a variety of complex applications in both military and civilian aircraft and helicopters.
