About the manufacturer
Safran S.A. (French pronunciation: [safʁɑ̃]) is a French multinational aerospace, defence and security corporation headquartered in Paris. It designs, develops and manufactures both commercial and military aircraft engines; launch vehicle, spacecraft and missile propulsion systems; as well as various other aerospace and military equipment and devices. Safran was founded in 2005 through a merger between the aerospace engine manufacturer SNECMA and the electronics specialist SAGEM. The subsequent acquisition of Zodiac Aerospace by the company in 2018 significantly expanded its aeronautical activities. Safran is a sprawling enterprise with various subsidiaries and employs over 92,000 people worldwide. The company is listed on the Euronext stock exchange and is part of the CAC 40 and Euro Stoxx 50.
