AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS 30th April 2012 - ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Jupiter, a facility that specializes in product qualification testing for the Aerospace & Defense industry, recently earned Preferred Supplier status from Honeywell. This highly coveted status places ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Jupiter on a short list of facilities approved to provide the testing services required by any Honeywell Global entity.

ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Jupiter is one of only a few laboratories that can perform these often technically complicated qualification tests and also adhere to the rigorous quality standards our customer demands,” said Arnout Lijesen, Executive Vice President, Corporate Development of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½. “ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Jupiter is currently engaged with Honeywell Aerospace on an extensive program for the qualification testing of a suite of high temperature valves for the Environmental Control System in the new Airbus A350 airliner.”

In addition to product qualification testing, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ also supports Honeywell and its supply chain with material testing.

“For over 30 years, our facility in Jupiter has been the go-to lab for challenging engineering projects for highly regarded organizations like NASA and Rolls-Royce,” said Charles Noall, President and CEO of ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½. “Adding Honeywell approval further validates our staff’s expertise and commitment to the Aerospace & Defense sector.”
