TotalEnergies gets you off the ground

• Sealing:
  Hutchinson designs and produces sealing solutions that can be found throughout an aircraft. This wide range of seals enhances the durability of the devices, ensuring maximum long-term performance. Some solutions contain over 25% recycled or bio-sourced materials.
• Thermal and acoustic insulation and fire resistance:
  Hutchinson enhances air safety and comfort by designing high-performance insulation solutions. Work on lightening these solutions helps reduce aircraft energy consumption.
• Batteries:
  Over 80% of airliners are equipped with Saft batteries. They are used in emergency power systems, as well as for starting engines and turbines! The use of Saft batteries contributed to the rescue of the Airbus A320, which had lost both its engines and was able to land on the Hudson in 2009.
• SAF:
  TotalEnergies produces Jet A-1, the traditional fuel for airliners. The company also produces Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) from used cooking oil, waste and residues. Today, this biofuel is produced on the Normandy platform, and tomorrow on the La Mède and Grandpuits sites.
