Cleanie Aviation Partners with TIM Aerospace on New Dubai South MRO Hangar

Over the past six years, Cleanie has built a solid reputation by delivering premium cleaning and facilities management across the UK and the UAE. Now, with the launch of Cleanie Aviation, we have elevated our expertise into the skies, supporting one of the fastest-growing ecosystems in the world.

In 2024, Dubai welcomed 92.3 million passengers at DXB airport, making it the world’s busiest international airport (see article). It is also estimated that a total of 159 million passengers will arrive at DXB in 2025, an increase of 8% growth since 2024.

“Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid: DXB’s record annual passenger traffic is a testament to the relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence that continues to shape the UAE’s progress”

The pace of growth in Dubai’s aviation sector is underpinned by the long-term investment vision of the D33 agenda (Dubai Economic Agenda), Dubai’s ambitious 10-year plan launched in 2023 to double the size of its economy, positioning it as a global hub for business, innovation and living.

A Partnership Built on Precision, Trust & Timelines

We are proud to announce our recent partnership with TIM Aerospace as their dedicated cleaning and maintenance partner for the official opening of their state-of-the-art MRO hangar at the Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub (MBRAH) in Dubai South. This partnership is an honour for Cleanie Aviation affirming our strategic expansion into the aviation and logistics sector in Dubai.

The moment we were appointed as TIM Aerospace partner for the launch of their new MRO hangar, our operations team mobilised immediately. With only a narrow timeframe to prepare one of the largest MRO hangars within the Al Maktoum aviation hub our team coordinated around the clock to ensure the facility was immaculately presented and ready for launch day.

We delivered end-to-end cleaning and facilities support for TIM Aerospace from high-level hangar cleaning to advanced floor cleaning to decorating the hangar with decorative touches ready to welcome the industry’s leading aviation representatives, investors and media.
