WEST WARWICK, R.I.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- AstroNova, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALOT), a global leader in data visualization technologies, today announced that it has secured multi-year contracts from several major Asian commercial airlines and leasing companies for AstroNova-manufactured flight deck printers for installation on new aircraft. The contracts vary in duration from four to eight years. Additionally, the Company has established an authorized repair station in Singapore to support its growing presence in the region.

“These latest commitments from Asia are a great endorsement of the many operational benefits provided by our AstroNova avionics products and our expanded regional presence,” said AstroNova President and CEO Greg Woods. “We are pleased to see the continued expansion of our aerospace business into Asia, which solidifies AstroNova as a global leader in flight deck avionics.
