Infinite Orbits opens new AIT facility in Toulouse to scale its next generation of in-orbit services
Toulouse, 8th September 2026
Infinite Orbits has opened its new Assembly, Integration and Testing (AIT) facility in Toulouse, expanding the company's industrial capacity as it prepares for the next generation of Orbit Guard and Endurance missions.
The new facility represents a significant step-up in Infinite Orbits’ industrial capabilities:
1,000 m² dedicated to spacecraft assembly, integration and testing
Facility deployed and operational in just six months
First satellite entering integration in September
Batch production capability to accelerate the deployment of future spacecraft
The new facility marks the next step in Infinite Orbits' growth from developing and demonstrating in-orbit capabilities towards industrialising and deploying its services at greater commercial scale.
Designed to support the assembly, integration and testing of future spacecrafts, the site will enable Infinite Orbits to move towards a batch-production approach, increasing production capacity and enabling faster deployment as its commercial portfolio grows.
The opening also reinforces Toulouse's role at the heart of Infinite Orbits' engineering and industrial activities and the company's continued investment in French and European space capabilities. More broadly, it reflects the reindustrialisation of the European space ecosystem, driven by a new generation of commercially focused NewSpace companies moving from technology demonstration to scaled deployment.
“For years, our team has excelled at designing solutions that are competitive and fast. Our facilities now reflect the same DNA. By mastering this capability ourselves, we accelerate toward one goal: delivering capacity quickly and at the right price. This represents a new era for our company, allowing us to keep delivering on our ongoing missions while significantly scaling up for the ones to come. ” said Marion Andrieux, CCO of Infinite Orbits.
The facility will support both of Infinite Orbits' core services based on a generic platform : Orbit Guard, providing space-based surveillance and inspection of critical assets in GEO, and Endurance, its satellite life-extension service.
The opening comes as Infinite Orbits prepares for a series of commercial and mission milestones over the coming months.
