In today's post we would like to share the most important points of a recent interview that our director, Ernesto González Durán, gave to the newspaper La Razón. This article not only reflects our organization's commitment to innovation and sustainability, but also highlights the growing relevance of composite materials in the transformation of air transport.
The importance of a media like La Razón highlighting our work lies in the visibility it gives to a crucial sector for the future of sustainable transport. It gives us the opportunity to bring our work and progress to a wider audience, highlighting how Fidamc contributes to technological and environmental development.
Getafe, the epicenter of innovation in composite materials
In the interview, Ernesto González shows our facilities in Getafe, with state-of-the-art technology and innovative processes. “We are designing carbon fiber parts that will not only revolutionize the aeronautical industry, but will also have a positive impact on the environment,” he says.
These lightweight and extremely strong materials make it possible to build more efficient aircraft. Every kilogram of weight saved means less fuel consumed, lower CO2 emissions and more sustainable aviation. As González explains, “the goal is to do more with less”. In other words, to reduce costs and resource consumption while increasing aircraft efficiency.
Sustainability as an essential premise
In 2023, air transport will grow significantly, with more than 283 million passengers at Spanish airports. This increase in demand presents a major challenge for the industry, which must balance the modernization of its fleets with reducing its environmental impact. “At Fidamc we work tirelessly to offer sustainable solutions based on composite materials, drawing inspiration from nature and their efficient design. These materials emulate the lightness and strength of wood, but with unparalleled durability and versatility,” Ernesto continues. “In addition, we are not only focused on creating high-tech materials, but also on ensuring that they are recyclable. This approach, called 'design to recycle,' is a key part of our philosophy and reflects our commitment to a sustainable future.”
Fidamc is not only looking to innovate in technology; our mission is to lead a shift towards a more responsible and conscious transportation industry. We know that every advance counts, and that is why we are dedicated to developing solutions that really make a difference.
