📢 We’re proud to share that GKN Aerospace has successfully delivered the first two C-27J nacelles to Leonardo Aircraft since 2018! This marks a huge milestone for us as we re-enable composite and assembly manufacturing capabilities and secure business continuity on this program for the next five years. This success was possible thanks to the collaboration of over 40 suppliers and our dedicated teams across GKN Aerospace Isle of Wight and GKN Fokker. Together, we’re committed to delivering excellence and supporting the C-27J platform every step of the way. #GKNAerospace #C27J #Defence #Innovation #Collaboration

GKN Aerospace Cowes completes 1.2MW Solar Farm, taking a firm step forward toward Sustainability! We're thrilled to announce the completion of our 1.2MW solar farm at GKN Aerospace Isle of Wight East Cowes site! This impressive project, generating over 1.15 million kWh annually, now powers 20% of our site’s energy needs, reducing our carbon footprint by 238 tonnes—equivalent to planting 9,000+ trees or taking 170 cars off the road! A special thank you richard quigley MP, the newly elected Member of Parliament for Isle of Wight West, who joined us to tour the facility, view the solar farm, and celebrate this step toward net-zero. Our Site Director, Garry Hernes, shared his gratitude: “A lot of hard work has gone into this project, and I’d like to extend a massive thanks to everyone who made it happen.” #Sustainability #NetZero #GKNAerospace #SolarEnergy #IsleofWight #Cowes
