Pioneering the Full Life Cycle of Aviation Assets
Founded in Xiamen in 2016, XAERO (Xiamen XAero Aviation Technology Co., Ltd.) has emerged as a trailblazer in the aircraft leasing and asset management industry. We were the first company in China to focus specifically on the second-hand aircraft market, creating a complete closed-loop business model that spans from leasing to end-of-life disposal.

In 2023, we underwent a strategic restructuring to separate our leasing and disposal operations, allowing us to accelerate our international expansion and industrial specialization. Today, XAERO is a high-tech enterprise dedicated to green development, integrating international trade, engine disassembly, and advanced technical services. With a team of experts bringing over 20 years of experience from top airlines and MROs, we provide innovative solutions that maximize the residual value of aviation assets while promoting environmental sustainability through professional recycling.
