The June edition of Aircraft Interiors International highlights a key industry shift: the integration of recycled materials into cabin elements such as aircraft seat covers.
Sustainability in cabin interiors goes beyond visible materials. Today, the evolution of aircraft seat covers reflects a clear shift toward lighter, recycled and operationally efficient solutions.
As an aviation textile manufacturer, Neotex develops technical seat cover fabrics made with up to 90% post-consumer recycled polyester, helping reduce plastic waste while supporting end-of-life circularity.
In a typical 120-seat narrowbody cabin configuration, this solution can integrate the equivalent of more than 32 recycled plastic bottles per seat, combining sustainability with durability, resistance and easier maintenance cycles.
Through NeoDye® digital colouration technology, Neotex also enables airlines to integrate colours, patterns and branding directly into seat fabrics, offering greater design flexibility while reducing conventional processing steps.
This combination of lightweight performance, durability and recyclability makes Neotex a trusted aircraft seat cover manufacturer for airlines, OEMs and MROs looking to reduce environmental impact without compromising cabin performance.
