The aerospace manufacturing segment has to face challenges on a daily basis. However, some challenges are big, such as the geopolitical challenge in the form of the Russia-Ukraine war, which put constraints on the supply of Titanium from Russia, as the US had said that they will not buy it from Russia.
As the aerospace industry is global and everyone wants to see the aircrafts fly, there had to be a mechanism to overcome such constraints and restrictions. There was enough backup by the global companies, especially in Europe, who were able to manage with the amount of Titanium they had with them.
In fact, there was no such restriction on Europeans to buy Titanium from Russia, and they were able to maintain enough supplies. These observations were made by Aravind Melligeri, the Chairman and CEO of the Belgaum, Karnataka-based Aequs Limited.
