Delta Air Lines and Endeavor Air have entered into a 10-year agreement, naming AeroCore Technologies as their exclusive engine foam wash provider. The wash program leverages AeroCore’s globally patented Nucleated Foam Technology to restore engine performance, improve fuel efficiency, reduce carbon emissions and save maintenance hours across the majority of Delta’s and Delta Connection’s fleet.

AeroCore’s innovative approach to aircraft engine cleaning delivers immediate and lasting results. By reducing engine temperatures, restoring fuel economy, and cutting CO2 emissions, AeroCore’s environmentally safe foam wash provides superior performance recovery compared to traditional water or detergent engine cleaning methods.

Engine-type agnostic and non-invasive, the foam wash efficiently cleans the entire engine gas path without the need for disassembly, complex setups, or towing the aircraft to a designated wash location. AeroCore’s service is performed planeside, at the gate, allowing up to four engines to be cleaned simultaneously with full capture of engine wash effluent. The entire process is completed in approximately 1 hour.

David Thompson, Vice President of Engineering, Quality & Safety at Delta Air Lines, said: “We are thankful to have a partner in AeroCore that can service our entire fleet and help support Delta’s fuel savings and engine health priorities.”

“We are grateful for Delta’s confidence in AeroCore’s technology and the value it brings to their fleet. AeroCore is proud to support Delta, and we look forward to further strengthening this partnership,” said Jorge Saenz, Founder, and Kevin Bourke, Chief Executive Officer, AeroCore Technologies.
