Commercial Aircraft
Our first commercial aircraft product was the YS-11, the first Japanese commercial aircraft built after the end of WWII. Using our experience of this product, we participated in several programs of commercial aircraft such as the Boeing 767, the Gulfstream III. Especially, with its capability of designing and fabricating high-quality "strong" and "light-weight" composite structures, ShinMaywa enjoys a high confidence from major aircraft manufacturers.
With these peerless technologies, we are currently providing a wide variety of several aircraft components for ones; such as, of The Boeing Company and Airbus for wide body aircraft, of Embraer for regional jet, and of Gulfstream and Bombardier for business jet.
With our motto, “Fulfilling our social responsibility through the provision of superior products and services and the maintenance and improvement of the quality of our management”, we will provide competitive products. Enhancing performances of quality, deliveries and costs in commercial aircraft businesses, we continue to be committed to manufacturing products that meet the expectations of our customers, continuing to develop original technology and playing a key role in the aircraft industry.

To meet the expectation, we established new Harima Plant in Ono city, Japan. We manufacture each parts separately such as; the metal parts in Harima Plant, the composite parts in Konan Plant (Kobe city, Japan) and final assembly in Takarazuka Plant (Takarazuka city, Japan) in order to progress the high quality, productivity and production capacity.
- About products
- From 2014 we have participated in the joint development and production project for the new designed wing-to-body fairing as a tier 1 supplier. This component primarily uses a composite material that combines carbon fiber and glass fiber with epoxy resin, and ShinMaywa’s technology related to the composite materials has been given high evaluations by its customers.
We could successfully achieve the delivery of our 1st wing-to-body fairing in April 2018 and have been manufacturing and supplying to Boeing.
Fillet Fairing for the Airbus A380
- About products
- In October 2002, we participated in the Airbus A380 superjumbo aircraft development program to start the development and production of Fillet Fairing, which covers for the portion between the main wing leading edge and the fuselage, as well as ramp surface panel, which covers for the main wing leading edge.
With the enthusiastic response to both of these products, in 2004 we were invited to join a program to produce the A330 and 340, and delivered fillet fairing for those models.
Wing Root Fillet Fairing for the Airbus A330neo
