Orbex

Founded in 2015, Orbex is Europe's leading orbital launch services company, serving the needs of the small satellite industry. Orbex has developed one of the most advanced, low carbon, high performance micro-launch vehicles in the world, Orbex Prime. We offer a flexible core launch service and a suite of supporting services that make life easier for customers. Our advanced launch vehicle means higher reliability, more flexible mission profile types and a regular, scheduled launch service.

Orbex specializes in providing satellite launch services designed for our customers. Our company uses a wide range of advanced materials and techniques to create each launch vehicle, including 3D printed engines and the use of carbon fiber structures and tanks. Notably, Orbex Prime is recognized as a remarkable feat of engineering, reflecting our commitment to pioneering more sustainable and innovative fuels that significantly cut carbon emissions. Industry leaders, including George Freeman, the UK Science Minister, have praised our rapid development of the Orbex Prime, asserting its status as the first full orbital micro-launcher in Europe. With our headquarters located in Forres, UK, we are on the cusp of historic developments, contributing to the generation of a brand new launch capability in UK space activities.
