Barnes Group Inc. Announces New Aerospace Aftermarket Component Repair Program

Barnes Group Inc. (NYSE: B), an international industrial and aerospace manufacturer and service provider, today announced that it entered into an aerospace aftermarket Component Repair Program (CRP) agreement with General Electric Company (NYSE: GE). The agreement provides the Company, as one of a few GE licensed suppliers, the right to sell certain aftermarket component repair services for the CFM56* engines over the life of the program directly to the market. In addition, the agreement extends existing contracts under which the Company currently provides these services directly to GE.

“As a result of Barnes Aerospace’s speed, quality and customer service, we continue to strengthen our aftermarket service offerings on successful global engine programs,” said Rick Barnhart, Senior Vice President, Barnes Group Inc. and President, Barnes Aerospace. “Component Repair Programs are excellent complements to our aftermarket repair operations, strengthen our business across all the stages of an engine’s life cycle, and deepen our relationships with our customers.”

* CFM56 is a trademark of CFM International, a 50:50 joint company between GE and Snecma (Safran).
