Pratt & Whitney, an RTX business, has announced it will expand its global network of GTF engine maintenance providers to include ITP Aero.

The Madrid-based facility will maintain the PW1500G engine for the Airbus A220 family and the PW1900G for the Embraer E-Jets E2 family with full MRO services and test capability.

It will mean that ITP Aero will become the 21st shop in the GTF MRO network and the eighth in Europe.

Keren Rambow, vice president of GTF aftermarket and transformation for Pratt & Whitney, said: “Pratt & Whitney and ITP Aero have partnered on the manufacturing and design of components for the GTF programme for more than a decade. It’s a natural extension of our relationship to have ITP Aero join the network, adding their MRO expertise to support the return of engines to our customers as soon as possible.”

A GTF risk revenue-sharing partner, ITP Aero has responsibility for manufacturing the mid-turbine frame and integrally bladed rotors made of nickel for high-pressure compressor components and more.

Eva Azoulay, chief executive of ITP Aero, said: “We value this opportunity to contribute our product knowledge, technical expertise and our component repair and operational capabilities to ensure fleet readiness and performance.

“Backed by our world-class teams, we are committed to delivering exceptional maintenance and support to customers here in Europe and around the world as part of our growing MRO and lifecycle services global network.”

The announcement was made at the Paris Air Show 2025.
