Cabin Interior and Electronics
Business Aircraft Cabins Go Green
High-end interiors and the push for sustainability merge in new-generation platforms.
Duncan Aviation has developed new capabilities for hydrodipping large components such as table inserts or galley tops. A film-transfer process, hydrodipping costs much less and is more sustainable than traditional treatments for wood and other cabin interior materials.

Business aviation’s push for sustainability and carbon neutrality has entered the cabin as the interiors of aircraft from turboprops to executive airliners are going green. And OEMs, completion and refurbishment centers, and interior components providers are all getting onboard. Were EBACE held physically this year, these efforts would doubtless be center stage, as the Continent’s aviation community has embraced the goal of achieving net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050.

“Supply chains are taking sustainability very seriously—that’s the big turning point,” said Daron Dryer, CEO of Comlux Completion, the VIP cabin-outfitting division of Switzerland’s Comlux Group.
