Through both organic growth and acquisitions, Safran has become a formidable presence in the United
States. Safran continues to expand its position in the U.S. by building new production units, creating
joint ventures and subsidiaries, and making targeted acquisitions.
CREATING HIGH-VALUE JOBS
Safran’s rapid growth and development in the United States has created a wide spectrum of high-value
jobs across the country. In a competitive international marketplace, Safran understands that our
employees are a vital part of our continued success – which is why we regularly seek out the “best and
brightest” to support our expanding operations both in the U.S. and around the world.
At Safran, our human resources policy is driven by professional excellence. The overriding goal is to give our
employees a safe and motivating work environment, so they can focus on delivering customer satisfaction.
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Supporting and enriching the local communities in which we operate is a pivotal part of Safran’s growing
presence in the United States. Our goal at Safran is to make a difference, by supporting people in need,
creating a healthier environment, providing educational opportunities for students, and supporting art
programs and cultural diversity in general.
This emphasis on “giving back” is an important component of Safran’s presence in the United States,
and further underscores its status as a responsible corporate citizen.
CORE VALUES
Safran USA’s operations are guided by integrity, teamwork, and innovation. These principles reflect the
Safran group’s core values applied across North America and worldwide.

OUR MARKETS
Safran is a leading international high-technology group and a Tier-1 supplier of systems and equipment for
aerospace, defense and security. Safran’s global presence enhances its competitiveness and allows it to build
industrial and commercial relations with the world’s leading prime contractors and operators, while providing
fast local service to customers everywhere. Working alone or in partnership, Safran holds world or European
leadership positions in its core markets.
AEROSPACE
Safran’s aerospace business covers the entire life cycle of engines, propulsion systems and equipment for both
civil and military airplanes and helicopters: design, production, sales, testing, maintenance, repair and overhaul
(MRO). Our systems and equipment are an integral part of today’s leading aircraft, whether produced in Europe,
North America, Brazil, China, India or Russia.
Through CFM International, an equal joint venture with GE, Safran powers nearly all single-aisle commercial
jets with the best-selling CFM56, including the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 families. We are well positioned
to duplicate this impressive success with the new LEAP engine, already selected to power the next generation
of commercial jets – Airbus A320neo, Boeing 737 MAX, Comac C919.
Safran is also playing a pivotal role in the development of “more electric” aircraft, through its advanced electrical
systems and the electric green taxiing system.
Safran is also one of the world’s leading manufacturers of rocket propulsion systems for launchers and missiles.

are the prime contractor.
Safran also offers custom-tailored modular solutions for infantry forces, plus tactical drone systems and the
AASM missile, a “smart” new generation guided air-to-ground weapon.
SECURITY
Safran’s security business covers three main markets: identification, e-documents and detection. We are a world
leader in multi-biometric identification technologies, and a major player in smart cards and the detection of
dangerous and illicit substances using computed tomography technology.
Deployed in over 100 countries, our secure ID documents, devices, and integrated systems enhance the security
of citizens, travelers and high-value sites around the world.
In India, Safran is playing a key role in the Aadhaar program, which will assign a unique identification number
to each resident, providing secure access to a wide range of social services and benefits.

STANDING OUT THROUGH INNOVATION
Research is strategic in any high-tech enterprise and
plays a critical role in building strong foundations for
the future. To maintain our leadership, Safran applies a
strategy of continuous innovation, investing some 12%
of our annual revenues in R&D.
