German business aviation services group Aero-Dienst has boosted its aircraft modification capability with the acquisition of AeroVisto Interior Services. Through a deal announced on Friday, the Swiss company brings expertise in cabin design, refurbishment, upholstery and component maintenance to its new owner.
AeroVisto is an EASA-approved Part 145 maintenance organization and also holds Part 21G production approval from the European regulator. According to Aero-Dienst, the expanded service portfolio means it will be able to provide more complete support for aircraft owners and operators.
“With AeroVisto we are not only gaining more exceptional technical expertise, but also passion, integrity, and clearly defined values,” said Aero-Dienst CEO André Ebach. Co-founder and COO Hermann Bauer, along with co-founder and chief commercial operator Carsten Matthiesen, are remaining with the Swiss company in their current roles.
AeroVisto currently employs 80 people at its sites in Switzerland (Zurich and St. Gallen) and Germany (Schnaittach). These will complement existing Aero-Dienst facilities in Austria alongside its main headquarters in Nuremberg, as well as a maintenance station near Munich and a component shop in Lansberg am Lech.
The new Aero-Dienst subsidiary was launched in its current form in 2014 when an existing company, Maritime Aerospace, was transferred to new owners and renamed. In 2023, it acquired Germany’s Complete Aircraft Services in a move that expanded it capabilities and infrastructure.
