Coptrz Named Exclusive UK Partner for Avy

A brand new exclusive partnership that brings long-endurance BVLOS drone capabilities to UK Emergency Services and Defence.

Coptrz, a UK provider of drone solutions and services, announced an exclusive partnership with Amsterdam-based Avy, becoming its sole UK partner for the Emergency Services and Defence sectors. This strategic collaboration marks a significant step forward in enabling long-endurance, Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) drone operations across the UK.

Through this partnership, Coptrz expands its portfolio beyond multirotor platforms to include Avy's advanced fixed-wing systems, including the Avy Aera aircraft and Avy Dock, a fully integrated drone-in-a-box solution. Together, these technologies enable scalable, autonomous drone networks designed for critical missions.

The Avy Drone Network combines long-range aircraft with remotely operated docking stations, enabling drones to take off, land, charge and deploy without the need for personnel on site. With response times of as little as 30 seconds and the ability to operate multiple assets from a single command centre, organisations can gather aerial intelligence or deliver critical payloads efficiently. Powered by intelligent automation, the system supports automated flight operations, AI-driven image processing and scheduled mission routes.

The agreement unlocks new opportunities for UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) and public sector organisations, supporting a wide range of use cases such as logistics, medical delivery, and persistent intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR). It also strengthens Coptrz's position within sovereign and non-Chinese supply chain initiatives, an increasingly important factor in government and defence procurement.

As the exclusive UK partner, Coptrz is now uniquely positioned to pursue larger framework agreements and programme-level bids, while laying the groundwork for future BVLOS deployments and drone-in-a-box infrastructure across the country.
