Overhauls to be faster and more sustainable in the future
“With the new facility, we are implementing our strategy of offering our customers in Brazil an even better and more sustainable service,” said Bernard Hanssens, head of global service at the Rolls-Royce competence centre in Liege, Belgium. Larissa Frausto, supply chain director in Brazil, added, “By overhauling locally, we’re reducing both logistics costs and the environmental impact, while promoting further technical development of our local workforce.”
So far, mtu Kinetic PowerPacks have been shipped to Belgium for overhaul. By shifting these operations to Brazil, Rolls-Royce not only improves turnaround times but also significantly cuts CO2 emissions associated with international transport.
