A technology-led company, Icon Aerospace Technology is a world leader in highly engineered products utilising polymers which are used in sealing, containment, propulsion and protection systems worldwide. Specialising in solving complex technical challenges, we create future facing industrial and aerospace solutions which minimise weight and optimise performance and value for our customers, who include the world’s major names in aerospace and defence.
Our working philosophy is based around our unique face2face methodology. face2face engineering doesn’t just describe how we do business. It defines who we are. It defines how we work with customers to listen, question and understand – and it defines how our design teams, material specialists and production experts collaborate face2face – internally and with our customers. As a result, we respond with smarter solutions, driving up standards and delivering tailored benefits for our customers.
We continually look for ways to increase sustainability and resource efficiency by reducing consumption and improving recovery of energy and raw materials in our production processes. Coupled with the sustainable advantages granted by our intelligent approach to energy management in our customers’ systems, we are fully committed to respecting our environment, whether it be local or global.
While we’re a technology-led enterprise, the true strength of our business lies with our people. It’s their expertise which drives product development. It’s their insight and creativity which informs problem-solving. And it’s their commitment to communication which strengthens relationships. These qualities are driven through our values.

Icon Aerospace Technology has all the qualities of a technology start-up – entrepreneurial energy, drive and an ambitious vision for a smarter future. This forward-looking focus has grown out of two other qualities – expertise and experience – which come from our pedigree as a driving force in polymer and composite technology.
Our roots can be traced back to 1863. Since that time, the company has always sought to be at the leading edge of technology, innovation and above all, understanding our customers’ requirements. We have a track-record of anticipating developments and creating new markets.
Today we are strongly focussed on providing innovation and value enhancing solutions to the Aerospace and Defence sector, and we are the partner of choice on many new high growth platforms in aerospace. In 2015, the company reaffirmed its commitment to Retford, the East Midlands’ town which stands proudly at the heart of the company’s heritage. Demonstrating our commitment to the town, to the business and employees as well as the future, we have embarked on a £multi-million investment – both in facilities and in a 4 year training and development programme for our people.
As we look forward, we will continue to invest in order to deliver the flexibility, value and innovation our customers demand in today’s global economy.
face2face engineering is a unique and productive approach which is all about creating stronger bonds – in our products and polymers, as well as through our people.
