After years of turbulence caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, 2025 has brought a welcome resurgence in passenger numbers across UK airports. From major hubs like Heathrow and Manchester to regional players such as Bournemouth and Teesside, the aviation sector is experiencing a robust recovery – one that signals renewed confidence in air travel and a return to pre-pandemic momentum.
But, as we look to the winter months ahead, this boost to business output also brings significant logistical challenges and renewed scrutiny on sustainability – where any margin for error is slim. Delays, cancellations, and safety incidents caused by winter weather are not just operational headaches – they are reputational risks.
With more flights and associated ground operations, reliable and efficient winter resilience strategies will be critical. Airports are under pressure to reduce their environmental impact while maintaining safety and efficiency. That is why OMEX De-Icers is working closely with our airport customers to ensure they are equipped with the right products, training, and support to keep operations running smoothly and sustainably.
Our range of high-performance, environmentally responsible liquid de-icers is designed to keep runways, taxiways, and aprons safe and operational. With the aviation sector now operating at full throttle, the importance of proactive de-icing strategies has never been greater.
OMEX De-Icers are manufactured in the UK, are biodegradable and non-corrosive, and work effectively at lower application rates – helping airports reduce both their carbon footprint and operational costs and at the same time keeping our runways free of ice and safe to use, even in the harshest of weather conditions.
