+

With an investment of USD 4 million and 7,400 m² of first-class infrastructure, the new center optimizes operating processes and reinforces Talma's commitment to safety, innovation and operational excellence.

Talma, a leading company in airport services in Latin America and member of the Grupo Sandoval, specifically its subsidiary in Colombia, marks a new milestone in its history with the start-up of Talma Specialized Center (CET) in Bogota, an emblematic endeavor designed to strengthen operating efficiency and raise Ground Support Equipment (GSE) maintenance standards.

With an investment of approximately USD 4 million, the CET covers 7,400 m² fitted out to provide specialized maintenance for equipment such as pushbacks, ground power units (GPUs), air start units (ASUs), ramp buses, conveyor belts and passenger stairs, making it one of the largest and most modern such centers in Latin America. The infrastructure incorporates specific technical areas for the revision, diagnosis and integral maintenance of each type of equipment, together with energy backup systems and state-of-the-art pneumatic technology, which ensure operational continuity and maximize the efficiency of each process.

In addition, the center includes administrative areas designed for collaborative work, continuous training and employee welfare, thus strengthening the culture of safety, quality and compliance that characterizes Talma.

“The development, implementation and commissioning of the CET represents a key advance in our regional growth strategy. This infrastructure allows us to increase Talma Colombia's technical and operational capacity, strengthen the reliability of our services and respond more efficiently to the demands of the airport sector. With the CET, we reaffirm our commitment to leading our sector's transformation in the country and actively contributing to the logistics development of the region", says Gonzalo Aristizábal, General Manager of Talma Colombia.

With this project, Talma consolidates its position as the leading airport services operator in Latin America, raising service standards and reaffirming its commitment to innovation, operational excellence and sustainable development in all the countries in which it operates.
