Motherson Group, a manufacturer of auto components, announced on Thursday that it has received an order from Boeing to manufacture and supply aftermarket moulded polymer parts for commercial aeroplane interiors.

This is Boeing's first order for Motherson, and production will begin in the third quarter of FY23. The company said in a statement that it will be manufactured at a plant in Noida.

The order's value, however, was not revealed by the company.

Motherson is now a Boeing tier-1 supplier as a result of this order. According to Motherson CEO (Aerospace division) Kunal Bajaj, this marks the start of a new journey in line with Motherson's vision for growth in aerospace.

This is an important step in commitment to the government of India's Aatmanirbhar Bharat vision, said Ashwani Bhargava, Senior Director, Supply Chain, Boeing India. Boeing, which has had a presence in India for more than seven decades, is committed to assisting the country's aerospace and defence development.

Motherson is expanding its capabilities to provide integrated solutions to the aerospace industry, according to the company.

Motherson has the necessary know-how to support the upcoming ramp-up of production for major global aircraft manufacturers, with capabilities in the aerospace ecosystem such as materials, aerostructures, wiring harnesses, and global manufacturing footprint.

This aligns with the company's growth strategy to strengthen the non-automotive business, which was announced in the Vision 2025 five-year plan.
