GE Aerospace to Buy CPP to Secure Jet Engine Casting Supply
GE Aerospace is buying CPP, a major maker of metallic castings for engine turbine blades, in its biggest acquisition since the GE split. The move targets mission-critical casting and forging capacity amid overstretched aerospace order books lasting 7–10 years, easing a long-running bottleneck that has contributed to production delays and supply tensions between engine makers and airlines.
