Commercial Aerospace

Commercial aerospace is the fastest growing market for titanium – in jet engine components and airframe structures.

Titanium: the Metal of Choice

Twin-aisle planes (e.g., Boeing 747, 767, 777 and 787 and Airbus A330, A340, A350 and A380) use a higher percentage of titanium in their airframes, engines and parts than single-aisle planes (e.g., Boeing 737 and 757 and Airbus A318, A319 and A320).

Moreover, the next-generation commercial aircraft (e.g., Boeing 787 and Airbus A350) utilize a significantly higher percentage of both titanium and carbon fiber reinforced composites to reduce weight and increase fuel efficiency.
