EUROTECH DI MARIO AMOROSO SAS

Their core work

Eurotech sas is a Naples-based aerospace engineering SME that provides specialist technical support for aircraft aerodynamic research and development within the Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking framework. Their work spans wind tunnel testing, aerodynamic and aerostructural optimisation, and the evaluation of anti-icing technologies applied to large passenger aircraft components. In the WTM-RECYCLE project they contributed to experimental aerodynamic work on turboprop aircraft models with morphing devices, while in IMPACT they focused on rear fuselage and empennage geometry optimisation combined with 3D ice accretion simulation and anti-ice coating assessment. They function as a technical execution partner — bringing applied engineering capability rather than academic research output.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Eurotech sas entered H2020 through experimental aerodynamics on turboprop aircraft, contributing to morphing device testing in wind tunnel environments — a primarily experimental, hardware-oriented role. By their second project (IMPACT, starting 2020), the focus shifted toward computational methods (3D ice accretion numerical simulation) alongside applied surface engineering (anti-ice coatings), suggesting a move from purely physical testing toward combined numerical-experimental workflows. The trajectory points to growing capability in simulation-informed design of aircraft thermal protection and rear-fuselage geometry, which are increasingly relevant as clean aviation programmes prioritise airframe efficiency at system level.

Eurotech sas appears to be building toward a combined numerical-and-experimental capability in aircraft icing and rear-fuselage aerodynamics, making them a viable specialist partner for Clean Sky or Horizon Europe airframe efficiency projects targeting large commercial aircraft.

How they like to work

Eurotech sas has participated exclusively as a consortium partner, never taking on a coordination role — consistent with an SME that delivers focused technical work packages rather than managing full projects. Their consortia have been relatively small (averaging around 5-6 active partners per project) across 6 countries, suggesting targeted specialist collaboration rather than broad network building. Working with them means engaging a hands-on technical contributor who integrates into larger aerospace R&D programmes led by primes or research institutes.

Eurotech sas has worked with 11 unique consortium partners across 6 countries, entirely within the Clean Sky 2 ecosystem which typically connects Italian aerospace SMEs with larger European primes, research institutes, and universities. Their geographic collaboration reach is European but concentrated in aerospace-heavy nations.

What sets them apart

Eurotech sas occupies a narrow but valuable niche as an Italian aerospace SME with direct Clean Sky 2 experience in both physical wind tunnel testing and numerical icing simulation — a combination few small companies hold simultaneously. Their Naples location places them within Italy's southern aerospace industrial cluster, with access to established relationships in the Italian aviation supply chain. For consortium builders targeting Clean Sky 3 or Horizon Europe aeronautics calls, they represent a proven, fundable SME partner with auditable EU project track record in airframe aerodynamics.

Highlights from their portfolio

• WTM-RECYCLE
  Largest funding award (EUR 301,875) and earliest Clean Sky 2 engagement, demonstrating capability in large-scale wind tunnel model integration with morphing aerodynamic devices on turboprop aircraft.
• IMPACT
  Addresses a highly specific and safety-critical aircraft challenge — ice accretion on rear fuselage and empennage — combining advanced numerical simulation with anti-ice coating evaluation, a technically demanding scope for an SME.
