AeroTex UK is constantly working with academic and industrial partners across the aerospace and wind power sector to improve methods and technologies in the icing field. A few of our latest activities are listed below:
ATI Conference 2026 17th & 18th November at the ICC in Wales
We’re thrilled to announce AeroTex will be attending the ATI Conference and showcasing our SME Programme project in the exhibition hall.
GLACIER is funded through the SME Programme, a partnership between the Aerospace Technology Institute, the Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade and Innovate UK.
Visit us to discover how our research is supporting the UK aerospace community by developing a novel electrothermal ice protection solution that will dramatically reduce power consumption, supporting the transition to electrification of future platforms from drones to commercial aircraft. We look forward to meeting customers, partners and new connections across the UK aerospace community.

GLACIER
In December 2025 AeroTex started a 30-month research project focused on delivering a revolutionary low-power ice protection system that fuses novel heater configurations with the our in-house AIP3 ice detection system. This work is performed in collaboration with Cranfield University and has received funded through the Aerospace Technology Institute/Innovate UK SME programme.
Atmospheric Icing Product (AIP3)
AeroTex continue to develop our in-flight ice detection system, the Atmospheric Icing Product or AIP3.
The system has demonstrated that it has the capability to; detect icing, determine the icing severity and differentiate between conventional small droplet icing and Supercooled Large Droplets (SLDs) whilst drawing low power input and we are continuing its development towards a marketable product

Congratulations to Pau for completing his PhD as part of the SurfICE program
Earlier this year, following three years of Marie Curie funding, under joint supervision from AeroTex UK and Valérie Pommier-Budinger from ISAE-SUPAERO Pau completed his PhD looking into predictive ice failure.
