Snecma has acquired the assets of Gespac Integration, a Moroccan company specialised in the manufacturing of electric wiring, via its Labinal subsidiary. The company is located in Temara, close to Rabat, and employs 200 people. Snecma says the acquisition will enable Labinal to meet the significant increase in requirements expected by its aircraft manufacturer clients as early as 2005. The move also develops Snecma's operations in Morocco, where the group already has a partnership with Royal Air Maroc for services (Snecma Morocco Engine Services) and aircraft wiring (Matis Aerospace).
