OMA S.p.A. and Meccanotecnica Umbra S.p.A., Umbrian excellence in the aerospace & defense, automotive, and industrial sectors, announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at exploring potential synergies in areas of mutual interest, enhancing their respective industrial capabilities, and developing new opportunities in international markets.

Thanks to its well-established international expansion strategy, which has led Meccanotecnica Umbra to enter various foreign markets, the company represents an ideal partner to support OMA in expanding its global presence. At the same time, OMA, with its extensive experience in the aerospace & defense sector, serves as a strategic partner for Meccanotecnica Umbra, facilitating its growth in a highly regulated industry with significant entry barriers.
This synergy not only enhances the operational management of both companies—both members of the Umbria Aerospace Cluster—but also promotes supply chain development, generating a positive impact that benefits the entire Umbrian region.
“Collaborating with a key partner such as MTU Group,” stated Umberto Nazzareno Tonti, President of OMA, “will allow us to further consolidate our international presence and optimize the management of global contracts. At the same time, we will bring our decades of aerospace expertise and know-how to support MTU.”
“This agreement,” commented Carlo Pacifici, President and CEO of MTU, “marks another significant step in the aerospace sector, an area of growing focus for MTU’s business activities. Our group can play a crucial role in this sector, leveraging synergies with a prestigious company and industry leader like OMA. MTU Group has a strong international presence; through our operational branches, we provide our clients with continuous local support and assistance to ensure that all project requirements are efficiently met in compliance with international standards.”
The Memorandum of Understanding represents the starting point of a collaborative journey that, in the coming months, could soon translate into concrete business initiatives. An important international contract will serve as an immediate test for this partnership.
MTU leads a group of companies, including Huhnseal AB (based in Sweden) and Fugesco Inc. (based in Canada). It operates various branches worldwide, including in Turkey, Germany, Brazil, China, India, Canada, Mexico, and the United States, and is a global leader in the production of mechanical seals, specializing in the automotive, home appliances, and various other industrial sectors.
OMA is a world-leading company in the Aerospace & Defense sector, providing high-value solutions for the design, development, and production of integrated aerostructures, onboard systems, and components, as well as aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services.
Both companies are members of the Umbria Aerospace Cluster, an association representing Umbrian regional industries operating in the aerospace, space, and defense sectors.
