Martin-Baker has been the world leader in the design and manufacture of ejection and crashworthy seats for over 80 years. A family-run business at our core, we’ve saved over 7,700 lives in our time and have been honoured to receive 11 Queen’s Awards. Our latest designs offer unprecedented life-saving capabilities, with over 16,500 seats currently in service.
Engineering For Life
Constantly innovating and pioneering aircrew safety development, we’ve dedicated all of our years as a family-run business to saving pilots’ lives. As the world’s leading manufacturer of ejection seats, we’re the only company to offer a fully integrated escape system that satisfies the very latest in pilot operational capability and safety standards. We’ve also developed a range of special crashworthy seats to meet the specialist safety needs of both helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft.
Over 80 Years of Experience
With facilities around the world, we offer a complete ‘end-to-end service’, from helping the customer establish operational safety and escape requirements to ongoing support throughout the entire service life of the aircraft. Passion for engineering, strong family ties and an extremely loyal and skilful workforce are just a few of the reasons behind our success.
Armed Forces Covenant
The Armed Forces Covenant is a promise by the nation that those who serve/have served and their families will not be disadvantaged and be treated fairly. The Covenant is now enshrined in law.
In 2025, Martin-Baker signed the Armed Forces Covenant to formally pledge our commitment to recognise the contribution that Service personnel, both regular and reservist, veterans and military families make to our organisation, our community and to the country.
