The Boeing Company

About Boeing

Boeing is a leading U.S. aerospace company that designs, manufactures, and services commercial airplanes, defense and space systems, and related technologies. Its portfolio spans narrow-body and wide-body jets, military aircraft, satellites, and support services for global aviation customers.

For the chemical industry, Boeing is a major end user and specifier of advanced materials and chemistries. Its products rely on carbon fiber–reinforced polymers, high-strength aluminum and titanium alloys, specialty resins, structural adhesives, sealants, primers and topcoats, corrosion inhibitors, flame-retardant systems, and aviation-grade fluids and lubricants. The company sets stringent material performance and qualification standards for coatings, composites, and elastomers used in airframes, interiors, and propulsion-related systems, and it works across the value chain on fuel specifications and certification, including sustainable aviation fuels (SAF).

Boeing’s global manufacturing and supplier network influences demand patterns for chemicals and materials used in aerostructures, assembly, maintenance, and lifecycle support. Its activities encompass materials research, process engineering (e.g., surface treatments and bonding), and environmental compliance related to emissions, waste, and hazardous substances in aerospace production and operations.
