About SAB
S.A.B. Aerospace s.r.o. was founded in 2014 as a subsidiary to Italian SAB S.r.l. which includes 6 European companies.
The abbreviation SAB of the Italian parent company means: Società Aerospaziale Benevento.
SAB designs, develops and integrates systems, subsystems and components for the European Space Agency (ESA) and public and private companies in the space industry.
Europe’s Leading Industry Group
Our projects
During more than 10 years of activities, SAB has been involved in several projects dealing with mechanical design, thermal and structural analysis of space systems and subsystems, high-precision mechanical integration, test activities, and production of flight hardware and mechanical ground support equipment.
SSMS

Since 2020 we enable Vega rockets to launch tens of small satellites in a single flight by using our SSMS structure, tailored to the needs of our customers.
PLATO SVM

PLATO uses 26 stargazing cameras tailor-made for the space environment. We provide specialised transport containers to make sure that they are safe and clean while being moved or stored on the ground.
ROSE-L

We provide the structure and thermal control system for this next generation European radar mission. ROSE-L will map areas with heavy vegetation, like forests and farms, while also assisting with ice cover monitoring.
A6 Sequencer

Ariane 6 is able to carry over 20 tonnes of satellites into low earth orbit. Our sequencer will allow it to carry as many satellites as needed and separate them exactly when required, increasing launch flexibility to meet the needs of the market.
IOSLAB

Space Rider presents an unique opportunity for researchers to send their payloads on a roundtrip to space. IOSLAB is how we make that even easier – interfacing our customers’ devices with Space Rider and adding all accommodations they need to make the most of their flight.
SLAVIA

An ambitious Czech mission involving a large part of our space science and industry, with SAB leading the development. These 2 satellites will demonstrate technologies for future space mining missions, while also providing unique data for scientific study of meteors, planetary defense and commercialization of space resources.
IOSHEX

We aim to enable in-orbit services, such as satellite and cargo transport, in-orbit assembly and manufacturing, or even building of large space structures. IOSHEX is how we plan to do it – a modular robotic spacecraft utilizing new technologies to revolutionize how we do space.
Sentinel S1-NG

Sentinel 1 remains the backbone of European Earth observation capabilities, providing consistent and weather-independent mapping of the surface. It is now time to build a new generation of Sentinel 1 satellites – and we provide the structure and thermal design for the spacecraft and its radar payload.
LCS4
The Low Cost Separation System is our product for small satellites. Offering state-of-the-art performance at a low cost, it complements SSMS in enabling the European small satellite ecosystem.

Hlavním cílem projektu je realizace experimentálního vývoje a získání nových znalostí potřebných pro vývoj segmentového Clamp Bandu. Clamp Band je modulární a tím kompatibilní s širokou škálou zařízení a vhodný pro využití ve všech fázích integrace vesmírných satelitů nebo vybraných částí nosičů. Výsledkem projektu experimentální vývoje je prototyp segmentového Clamp Bandu. Předmět řešení a jeho výsledky jsou chráněny obchodním tajemstvím
Na realizace projektu získala naše společnost příspěvek z prostředků Evropské unie, prostřednictvím Operačního programu Podnikání a inovace pro konkurenceschopnost.
