Safran is a privately owned company headquartered in France, founded in 2005, and employing approximately 62,080 individuals. The company operates as an international group specializing in aviation, defense, and space markets, with core activities encompassing propulsion, equipment, and interiors. Safran focuses on component manufacturing for these sectors, maintaining a global presence.

Engine makers and other suppliers face competing demands between assembling new planes and maintaining existing fleets, forcing airlines to extend the use of older, less fuel-efficient aircraft.
