Korean Companies Enhance Design And Certification Skills
The Korean government is promoting domestic aerospace composite companies to move beyond simple manufacturing and become high value-added suppliers capable of handling design, certification, and mass production. The Korea Aerospace Administration (KASA) recently held a roundtable with eight domestic composite material and component companies to discuss their needs and challenges. The companies requested support for establishing a domestic testing and certification infrastructure, creating a joint database, and expanding pilot testing. KASA plans to reflect the companies’ feedback in its policies and initiatives, as reported by The Asia Business Daily.
