Challenging expectations of aircraft seating comfort – Aircraft Interiors Expo 2018

In recent years, commercial aviation has started to pay more attention to economy class seating, but most innovation has been iterative. At tangerine, we strive to challenge conventions and have identified an opportunity to introduce small but transformative changes to improve aircraft seating comfort and enhance the passenger experience.

At Aircraft Interiors Expo 2018 in Hamburg, the UK Department for International Trade (DIT) will introduce tangerine’s new seat concept on their inaugural stand at the show. Alongside tangerine, Virgin Atlantic will present a new VR experience.

The DIT stand, supported by Liam Fox MP, Secretary of State for the Board of Trade, will launch the UK airline interiors ‘one-stop-shop’, highlighting the importance of the UK’s design and supply chain. The Department for International Trade Aerospace Minister, Graham Stuart will also visit the show on the Wednesday afternoon to host a reception planned by the DIT.

We are delighted to have the opportunity to bring our extensive experience in exporting design services to help launch this initiative at AIX 2018.

Come and visit us at Hall B2 Upper 75, we look forward to seeing you there!
