Construction Projects Investing in the Future

We are creating a world-class airport experience

Our passengers and all our visitors expect to be able to use the airport facilities safely and comfortably.

Fraport will invest around €485 million a year in the infrastructure of Frankfurt Airport between now and 2026. Its buildings, runways, taxiways and technical systems are the foundations of Germany’s largest aviation hub. Construction projects, renovation work and conversion work make an important contribution to providing a world-class airport experience, in line with our mission statement “Gute Reise! We make it happen”. They ensure our passengers and visitors can use the airport safely and comfortably. With this in mind, we are continuously building and modernizing in order to meet our customers’ expectations.

Our experts from various disciplines work together in a spirit of mutual trust to successfully bring to fruition challenging large-scale projects.  

Our existing infrastructure comprises ...

26 square kilometers in Frankfurt Airport City
150 kilometers of roadway
around 7 kilometers of apron
around 420 buildings

Multifaceted construction projects

We work on roughly 300 projects a year – from construction projects, modernization and renovation works to maintenance.

Construction above and below ground, structural engineering, modernization works, construction of roads and tunnels – our projects are as multifaceted as our passengers and visitors.

To meet the wide-ranging requirements, tasks and challenges involved in airport projects, we work with specialists from various disciplines, including architecture, engineering, specialist planning and facility management.

Fraport needs partners: Build with us!

In its capacity as a contracting authority, Fraport is an advocate of competition and small and medium-sized businesses.

Fraport is a knowledgeable and reliable contracting authority in the global construction industry. Its range of construction projects is broad in terms of both the depth and breadth of requirements. They make an important contribution to our “Gute Reise! We make it happen” mission statement to provide a world-class airport experience. We undertake both large-scale and innovative projects with a degree of prestige.

Creating jobs for the region

Fraport’s service providers and suppliers work for one of the largest job creators in the region.
