If you’re looking for proof of sustainability in business aviation this week at EBACE 2023, look no further than the cabins of the aircraft in the static display at Geneva Airport and the interior components presented by completion and refurbishment specialists exhibiting at Palexpo.

While the industry’s focus on sustainability developed relatively recently, cabin interiors have relied on sustainable materials and renewable resources “for decades,” said Christi Tannahill, sr. v-p, customer experience, at Textron Aviation (Booth T26, Static Display AD_07). She cited the wool, cotton, linen, silk, mohair, bamboo, and leather commonly used to outfit business aircraft cabins, all of which are sustainable and renewable.
