An aircraft grounded. Every passing hour has a cost. Every day of downtime impacts operations, margins, and the promise made to passengers.

This is precisely the challenge that CorsoPatch® addresses — and what Air & Cosmos chose to highlight in its Special Paris Air Show 2025 issue (No. 2927 – June 2025), at the heart of the world’s largest aeronautics event.

At the show, as in the pages of the magazine, our technology’s performance spoke for itself:

• 40-minute repair time, compared to 8 hours with traditional liquid paint
• No hazards related to VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds)
• Adoption by airlines
• Approval by the French Army and EASA (European Union Aviation Safety Agency)

Civil and military: two worlds, one shared standard — availability, speed, and reliability.

As these markets converge, Corso Magenta is establishing itself as a reference partner, capable of meeting the most strategic challenges.

This double recognition at the Paris Air Show is not an endpoint. It is a signal: our vision of aeronautical maintenance is becoming the norm.

Eight hours. Until recently, that was the time required to repair an aircraft’s paint. Eight hours during which the aircraft remained grounded — immobilized, unproductive. At Corso Magenta, we believed this constraint was not inevitable.

Today, with CorsoPatch®, the same operation is completed in under 40 minutes.

A true technological breakthrough, featured by the Magazine des Ingénieurs de l’Armement (No. 135 – June 2025) in its special report on aeronautical subcontracting. A recognition that reflects years of commitment and is a source of great pride for our teams.

Behind this achievement lies a profound transformation in the approach to aeronautical maintenance:

• A dry-application process, with no odor or emissions, improving working conditions for ground crews
• Approval by the French Army and EASA (European Union Aviation Safety Agency), ensuring the highest standards
• International adoption already underway with several airlines

Beyond the figures, CorsoPatch® embodies a strong conviction shared by all our teams: the French aeronautics industry has the capacity to innovate differently — and to redefine the standards of an entire sector.
