Boeing and Airbus will increase purchases from "VSMPO-Avisma".

The titanium company "VSMPO-Avisma" expects additional orders from Airbus and Boeing to load its capacities, which should grow by a third to 40 thousand tons by 2020. Currently both concerns account for over 60% of the exports of the Russian company and while the blocking stake of "VSMPO-Avisma" belongs to "Rostec", which fell under the sanctions, that does not stop cooperation with Western consumers. Analysts believe that any breach of contract with the "VSMPO-Avisma" would be too costly for the aircraft manufacturers.

"VSMPO-Avisma" has agreed to expand cooperation with the world's two major aircraft manufacturers Boeing and Airbus.

For Boeing "VSMPO-Avisma" will be a key supplier on the program of a new family of wide-body aircraft 777H.
