  • Division Aerostructures: lightweight components for an aircraft's fuselage, wings, and tail assembly
  • Division Engines & Nacelles: engine parts and fairings
  • Division Cabin Interiors: complete interior fittings ("floor to floor") such as luggage racks, ceiling panels and on-board toilets
  • The Aftermarket Services includes maintenance, repair and development services, as well as modifications for all structural and interior components.

Users of FACC's products and services include all leading aircraft and engine manufacturers and their first-class suppliers, for example Airbus,[7] Boeing, Bombardier,[8] Comac, Embraer, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce,[9][10] Airbus Helicopters, Aviation Partners, Dassault, Diehl, Engine Alliance, Gulfstream, Hawker Beechcraft, Safran, Collins Aerospace and others.[6] FACC's most important export markets are Germany, France, Canada, United Kingdom, US, Brazil and China.[10]

In 2025, FACC achieved record revenue growth of 11.3%, reaching EUR 984.4 million. This strong performance was also reflected in the operating result (EBIT), which increased to EUR 42.3 million.[11]
