Bikar considers Belagavi an ideal location to serve aerospace manufacturers in India’s aerospace triangle, which consists of Belagavi, Bengaluru and Hyderabad.
German company Bikar Aerospace GmbH will establish an advanced service centre at the Belagavi Aerospace Cluster (BAC). Bikar expects its new location be fully operational by the first quarter of 2024.
The BAC is operated by Aequs Infrastructure. The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at the ongoing Paris Air Show to establish the advanced Aerospace Service Centre.
In future, Bikar will provide storage and customised processing of semi-finished products made of aluminium, titanium, super alloys and other metals used in the aerospace sector.

This move signifies our commitment to providing exceptional services to our clients while strengthening our position in the aerospace market.
