L.I.F.E., a new Portuguese multi-discipline consortium, has been formed to explore “the design, development and industrialization of functional technical solutions for aircraft interiors,” and will work in collaboration with Almadesign of Porto Salvo, Portugal, and Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer.
The L.I.F.E. group is made up of Amorim Cork Composites, leather provider Couro Azul, INEGI institute of mechanical engineering and industrial management, and SET injection mold prototyping. The collaboration with Embraer, according to L.I.F.E., brought “a direct and privileged access to the view of an aeronautical integrator, facilitating access to information on market trends and technological solutions for the interior cabin.”
