AirProPak Helicopter Preservation Kits

Reduce Maintenance Expenses on Out of Service Helicopters

Our AirProPak Helicopter Preservation Kits offer a packaging solution that reduces the overall cost of maintaining an out-of-service helicopter.  Our kits create a completely controlled environment around the aircraft. This mothballing or cocooning process starts with unique, flexible moisture barrier films designed to prevent even minimal exposure of humidity to the aircraft, its engine, and electrical parts. This process guarantees no corrosion for a minimum of five years. The cost to provide this long term corrosion prevention solution is much more cost effective than an expensive climate controlled environment warehouse or hanger. The entire application process can be completed in less than a day.
