Safran Nacelles is a leader in the worldwide nacelle market for aircraft engines. We use our unrivalled technological expertise to integrate all nacelle components in order to optimise the performance of aircraft propulsion systems. We continually strive to make our products lighter, quieter, smarter and easier to maintain.

We are responsible for the design, development and manufacture of nacelles for a range of aircrafts. A nacelle is a housing, separate from the fuselage that holds engines, fuel, or equipment on an aircraft. Our UK site in Burnley is also a worldwide centre of excellence for business jet nacelles, which have been designed and manufactured on the site for nearly 20 years. This site plays a critical role in manufacturing for Safran Nacelles, alongside our sister sites in Le Havre and Morocco.

We are one of the largest private sector employers in the area with over 600 people. We have three factories - one specialising in composites, one in sheet metal components, and one in assemblies. These factories use the most cutting-edge technology; including four clean rooms, 5-axis computer numerical control (CNC) routing, ultrasonic non-destructive testing (NDT) and four autoclaves. Since 2011 we have hired 87 apprentices as part of a programme with Burnley College and have recently relaunched our graduate programme, which we developed in partnership with the other Safran sites across the UK.
