Boeing and Fenwick, West Virginia-based Ice Shield have signed an exclusive master distribution agreement, expanding the latter’s aftermarket offerings for deicing products for business aircraft operators and regional airlines. The agreement was announced this week at EAA AirVenture.
While often associated with winter operations, effective deicing systems can be critical throughout the year, including in regions with wide temperature swings and at altitudes where unexpected icing can occur.&nbsp;
“We are dedicated to providing our customers with the best products to ensure safe and efficient operations,” said William Ampofo, senior v-p of Boeing parts and distribution and supply chain. “This agreement with Ice Shield allows us to expand our offerings, ensuring our customers can operate confidently, even in challenging weather conditions.”
Ice Shield, owned by SMR Technologies,&nbsp;has specialized in aircraft deicing systems since its introduction in 1998 and supports a range of aircraft platforms. Its product line includes pneumatic wing boot deicers, propeller electro-thermal deicers, wire harnesses, and engine inlet deicers. Under the new deal, Boeing will use its global parts distribution network to deliver Ice Shield products to operators seeking year-round protection from icing conditions.
