New secure stowage Servecorp Ltd has launched a new range of Servestow™ LVS99 ultra-lightweight and secure Life Vest


Stowage, thus providing airlines with solutions to current issues such as security and lowering operational costs by reducing onboard weight and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The LVS99 can typically save a minimum of 70 grams per seat - which


represents a significant reduction in weight, fuel costs and CO2 emissions when multiplied across a fleet of aircraft. The unique front closure (patent pending no. 1112018.5) enables the stowage to be secured with a self-adhesive tamper-evident label. This security feature assists airlines in complying with aircraft search requirements, and also provides additional cost savings in search and turnaround times, deters life vest theft and promotes efficient data collection for maintenance records.


The US TSA acknowledges that the LVS products “meet the TSA criteria for an acceptable sealed life vest holder.”


Redefining aviation thermoplastics


KYDEX, LLC is elevating aircraft interior design with new thermoplastic


compounds, colours, finishes and textures. Many elements thought to be economically prohibitive or even physically impossible are now at the fingertips of designers. At Aircraft Interiors Expo 2012, KYDEX will present a new aviation-specific palette. Designers will be able to review a completely new swatch book with surprising hues, varied moods, and a vast array of contrasting and complimentary combinations.


Innovative new finishes and textures from the Design Lab


Bold metallics, sparkling pearlescents, iridescents and


pleasingly tactile materials expand the possible design vocabulary. Colourful and liberating translucents is another KYDEX first. Now, light can be used as a living design element in a way that’s never been available. Innovations in texture will also provide passengers more pleasing surfaces in high-touch areas, contributing to an overall better flying experience. So passengers will not only see the difference, they’ll feel it.


Compliant compounds KYDEX®


FST (Fire, Smoke, Toxicity) compounds


are not only compliant with FAA regulations, but also the stringent “above and beyond” standards of carriers like Boeing and Airbus. These materials offer the strength, durability and aesthetic excellence of traditional thermoplastic sheet, but with more versatility, and long-term environmental benefits. New formulations are available in pearlescent, translucent and a low- gloss finish. KYDEX®


available with Microban®


thermoplastic sheet is also antimicrobial


technology that works continuously to help prevent the growth of stain and odour causing bacteria that can cause product deterioration.


Ingenious passion for a variety of additional benefits


At Aircraft Interiors Expo 2012, Bucher will be presenting a number of exciting new aircraft developments – interesting new concepts and compelling technical solutions, which continue to underscore Bucher’s commitment to added value and customer benefits. Not only do these solutions prove Bucher’s engineering expertise, but they also demonstrate a strong passion for reliable innovation in the area of product quality and performance. At its newly updated exhibition stand, Bucher will


present an array of highly-anticipated new concepts and solutions featuring the great work to come out of both its Zurich and Seattle development centres. These new concepts and solutions will show once again how Bucher’s ingenious engineering turns ideas into some of the best functional solutions and physical products on the market, and goes above and beyond customer needs. At Bucher’s stand you will find the new Air Transport


Stretchers ATS, recently certified for Boeing’s B787, this is the only currently approved stretcher for this type of aircraft. Another exciting product is a fully-fledged Galley for wide body aircrafts. This Galley shows a number of new features as well as improvements over previous designs. These enhancements clearly translate into increased operational performance. Bucher’s stand will make these as well as many other solutions and designs available for visitors to experience first-hand. Visitors will have the opportunity to test for themselves how easy Bucher’s Galley components can be exchanged and maintained.


Bucher also has a diverse range of Food Tray


Tables that have all been proven to be great solutions for business travel on both private and commercial flights. For example, there is the "Mercury" -F/C-Suite table developed with Contour Aerospace for Air China's B777-300ER. The same passion for refined design is evident in other cabin solutions: For example the latest version of the innovative “compact motion” front row video deployment system (with Thales 12.1” Gen IV Monitor); the “pop-up” type IFE-units for B/C; ones for VIP applications or the latest edition of the proven economy or premium- economy video arm that is compatible with front row seats made by almost any manufacturer.


An excellent example of Bucher's leadership in turnkey


production integration is in the area of business class seats. Whether you are looking for a console or any other seat furnishing, the results are always seamless thanks to Bucher’s specialists who possess unparalleled knowledge and expertise of light-weight construction.
