A Successful First Year at Farnborough
Farnborough International Airshow 2026 marked Cristex’s first time exhibiting at one of the world’s leading aerospace events, providing an excellent opportunity to strengthen existing relationships, meet new contacts and showcase our expanding aerospace offering.
Exhibiting as part of the Composites UK Pavilion, we welcomed visitors throughout the week to discuss our range of composite material solutions, including advanced prepregs, core materials and precision cutting & kitting services. There was strong interest in solutions that help manufacturers improve efficiency, simplify their supply chain and support high-performance manufacturing applications.
The event also provided the perfect platform to showcase the recent launch of CCK Aerospace, introducing visitors to our dedicated aerospace precision cutting & kitting services and demonstrating how we support customers from material supply through to precision processing.
A particular highlight of the week was the Meet the Buyer programme organised by the North West Aerospace Alliance (NWAA). These sessions gave exhibitors the opportunity to hear directly from leading aerospace organisations, including Rolls-Royce, Boeing and BAE Systems, offering valuable insight into current industry priorities, future opportunities and the evolving needs of the aerospace supply chain.
We’d like to thank the North West Aerospace Alliance for organising these informative sessions, which added real value to the exhibition and provided an excellent opportunity to gain further industry insight.
Thank you to everyone who visited the Cristex stand during FIA2026. It was a pleasure to reconnect with existing customers, introduce our capabilities to new contacts and discuss future projects across the aerospace sector.
Following a successful first year at Farnborough, we look forward to building on the relationships established during the event and returning in the future as we continue to grow our presence within the aerospace industry.
