What we do and don’t do

The goal of Aethos is to improve the recycling of aircraft materials. Many aspects of the end-of-life process of aircraft are already done very well. However, there are still things that couldand should be done better! The research that is supported by Aethos does not focus on the reuse of components. The aviation sector is already very good at that.The unique system of recertifying these parts ensures quality, which allowsother aircraft to continue flying safely. The focus of Aethos is, therefore, on the recycling of aircraft materials. Would it not be nice if a disposed aircraft part could not only be reused but could also source the raw material for a new component?
