Fokker Techniek has expanded its current operations with additional aircraft parking spaces during the current challenging period. The completion and maintenance facility in Woensdrecht, the Netherlands, has also implemented reinforced cleaning and disinfection of its infrastructure, tooling and equipment, as well as adopting appropriate social distancing measures, to ensure that employee welfare and customer support remains top priorities.

We are fully aligned with the Dutch governmental restrictions and guidelines, and we are proud to see that our staff here at Fokker Techniek continue to be very supportive to secure and fulfil all ongoing work commitments.

We are in this together and we want to remain a solid partner providing services in these unprecedented times.”
