The Aircraft MRO Market size was valued at US$ 99,086.94 million in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 170,482.90 million by 2031; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 8.5% during 2025-2031.
Investing in sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) and related services presents a significant opportunity for aircraft MRO providers. As the aviation industry intensifies its efforts to reduce carbon emissions and achieve sustainability goals, MRO companies can play a pivotal role in SAF adoption. By offering SAF-related services and technologies, MRO providers can position themselves as leaders in environmental sustainability and contribute to the industry's commitment to greener aviation practices. This opportunity aligns with the growing demand for eco-friendly aviation solutions and can open new revenue streams while fostering a more sustainable future for the sector. For instance, in February 2022, SIA Engineering Company Limited announced a trial using SAF with SIAEC's joint venture with Rolls-Royce and Singapore Aero Engine Services Private Limited (SAESL) to perform engine tests at its engine test facility. This is anticipated to position SIAEC as a sustainability-centric MRO service provider in the coming years. Similarly, in February 2023, Boeing entered into agreements to acquire 5.6 million gallons (equivalent to 21.2 million liters) of blended sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) from Neste, a global leader in SAF production. Boeing's significant SAF procurement highlights a growing opportunity for Aircraft MRO providers.
As airlines prioritize eco-friendly operations, MRO companies can offer services related to SAF integration and usage. This includes retrofitting aircraft to accommodate SAF, conducting SAF-related maintenance, and ensuring compliance with SAF standards and regulations.
The airworthiness of an aircraft can be achieved by scheduling MRO activities of its components at regular intervals. The aircraft MRO market has been analyzed on the basis of revenue generated from these MRO activities. The demand for each component's MRO service is currently on the rise and is expected to grow at a steady rate during the forecast period. The cost incurred in engine MRO enables service providers to generate significantly higher revenues than other components. The cost incurred in maintaining aircraft engines, the maintenance frequency of aircraft engines, and the rise in new and aged aircraft fleets cumulatively led the market for the engine MRO segment from 2021 to 2024, and the market growth is foreseen to continue during the forecast period. Thus, the engine MRO segment is expected to capture the maximum market share and is likely to register the highest CAGR from 2025 to 2031. However, the future of avionics MRO and cabin MRO segments appears to be promising with the rise in the demand for advanced electronics on flight decks and cockpits.
