Will Cooperate On Marketing, Certification Initiatives
CAV Aerospace Ltd. and Kilfrost have agreed in principal to a
joint global marketing and engineering certification program for
TKS ice protection fluids used in the general aviation
industry.
CAV Aerospace manufactures and retrofits TKS ice protection
systems for use on general aviation airplanes ranging from
single-engine piston-powered aircraft to mid-size business jets.
Kilfrost supplies fluid ice protection products to general
aviation, in addition to the commercial aviation and other
transportation industries.
"CAV Aerospace Ltd. and Kilfrost will take a team approach in
the development, certification, distribution and sales of TKS ice
protection fluids," said Kevin Hawley, president of CAV Aerospace
Inc., the company's US ice protection subsidiary. "We look forward
to partnering to expand the ice protection market primarily in the
United States."
CAV will offer TKS fluids, produced by Kilfrost, to more than
4,000 aircraft operators who fly the TKS ice protection system.
Joint business development initiatives for the two companies
include marketing materials, advertising, web site promotions and
trade show appearances.
Kilfrost's ice protection products are exported worldwide from
production facilities in the United Kingdom and under license in
the United States, mainland Europe and the Far East. Kilfrost's
logistics system features a 24/7 helpline and ensures expeditious
fluid delivery.
