Modular Control Towers for Remote Airports

TERCIEL’s modular control tower is a plug-and-play solution for isolated or hard-to-access aerodromes.
From small island airstrips to inland airfields disconnected from infrastructure, our tower brings professional-grade air traffic services where they’re needed most.

Why Terciel’s Control Towers are Unique.

ECO-DESIGNED, RESILIENT & TURNKEY

Built using hot-dip galvanized steel, our tower is:

  • Fully prefabricated and delivered in one shipment

  • Assembled on-site without concrete (“dry construction”)

  • Resistant to cyclones, seismic shocks, and corrosion

  • Autonomous: integrates solar panels and rainwater reuse systems

  • Designed for full dismantling and reuse at another site if needed

FROM ASSEMBLY TO OPERATIONS IN 6 MONTHS

With minimal local requirements, a Terciel-trained team handles:

  • Assembly

  • Installation of technical equipment (radio, radar, weather)

  • Operational readiness tests
    Backed by ENGIE/INEO, our industrial partner, we streamline fabrication and logistics.

Technical and Environmental Excellence

Adaptable to Culture and Climate

  • Each tower integrates a customizable façade skin adapted to the local cultural identity: tribal, maritime, urban…
  • It blends into its environment while offering the 360° visibility and elevation standards required for safe air traffic control.

Compliant with International Standards

  • Our towers meet ICAO and DGAC France recommendations.
  • They can be used for AFIS, ATC, or hybrid operations and support both commercial and emergency aviation.


Economic Impact & Employment Boost

A single Terciel control tower supports:

  • Temporary jobs during assembly (transferable skills)

  • Long-term jobs for air traffic services and maintenance
    Plus, every 5,000 additional passengers/year can generate:

  • 5 direct airport jobs

  • 20 indirect jobs (suppliers, services)

  • Measurable economic ripple effects across the region
