Our Services

Maintaining airports and runways is a high-stakes job it’s essentially about ensuring that every takeoff and landing is as safe as possible.
Airport maintenance involves the continuous repair and upkeep of all airfield facilities to ensure safety and operational efficiency. The most critical part is runway (airstrip) maintenance, which focuses on keeping the pavement smooth and free of any hazards that could damage an aircraft.

Airport maintenance is the backbone of aviation safety. It encompasses the continuous upkeep of runways ,taxi ways , parking parking area terminal infrastructure, and ground systems to ensure seamless operations, passenger comfort, and strict compliance with international aviation standards.
At Al Shahen Global, we redefine excellence in airport infrastructure and aviation support services. Specializing in comprehensive airport maintenance, our expertise spans from airfield engineering and navigational lighting to terminal facility management. We are committed to ensuring operational continuity and maximum safety, aligning every project with international aviation standards (ICAO & IATA & LYCAA) to keep the world flying safely.

Maintenance of runways and walkways
(Airfield Pavements)

Focuses on the safety of the surface on which aircraft are traveling to ensure that it can withstand heavy weights and prevent slipping:
• Repair of cracks and gaps: Treatment of asphalt and concrete cracks to prevent water intrusion and subsoil degradation.
• Rubber Removal: Using high-pressure water jetting technology to remove rubber build-up caused by tire friction on landing, improving the friction coefficient.

Electrical Systems Maintenance & Optical Navigation

It ensures that aircraft are steered safely especially in bad weather conditions and at night:
• Aerial Field Lighting (AGL): Inspection and maintenance of runway edge lights, approach lights, and color lighting systems.
• Standby Power Systems: Generator maintenance to ensure that there is no power outage to navigation and communication systems.

Maintenance of Facilities & Yards (Apron & Structures)

• Aircraft parking yards: Maintenance of loading and unloading areas and checking the bearing capacity of the docks.
• Drainage systems: Cleaning and maintenance of stormwater drainage channels to prevent water from accumulating on the runways.
• Greenery: Mow grass around runways and walkways to prevent birds from attracting and ensure clear signals.

Maintenance of ground support equipment and vehicles

• Service Vehicles: Regular maintenance of aircraft propulsion vehicles, passenger ladders, and ground power units.
• Rescue Equipment: Continuous inspection of fire trucks and emergency equipment to ensure their immediate readiness

Airport Perimeter Fencing

One of the most important elements of the "air side" is to ensure that unauthorized persons, animals, or vehicles do not enter, and it is the first line of defense to protect runways.
Fence maintenance and repair work includes:
Types of periodic check-ups
• Daily visual inspection: Ensure that there are no openings caused by deliberate cutting or natural corrosion, and ensure the integrity of the concrete bases
• Inspection of sensitive areas: Focus on points near runways and areas of approach

Systems Integration (Technical Maintenance)

• Intrusion Detection Systems (PIDS): Screening of sensors mounted on the fence that give an alarm when attempting to cut or climb
• Security Lighting: Replacing damaged headlights directed towards the fence line to ensure visibility at night
