Galway firms involved in 'super-jumbo' construction

When the new 550-seater Airbus A-380 debuts at the Paris Air Show next week, two Irish firms will have played their part.

The two Galway Gaeltacht-based companies, CTL Tástáil Teo. And Eirecomposites Teo. Are leaders in the field of lightweight advanced composite materials, which make up almost 25% of the structure of the new "super-jumbo".
