09 January 2007 14:10
Fly high with a lightweight leather option from Andrew Muirhead, the world's leading supplier of quality upholstery leather to the aviation industry.
Ideal for airlines wishing to reduce weight ratios to combat increasing fuel costs, Muirhead's 'Fly-weight' leather is up to 40% lighter than other aircraft interior leather options.
"It still has all the properties and durability of heavier weight aircraft interior leathers," says Nick Hanna, sales manager at Andrew Muirhead. "This is a particularly important consideration as fuel prices continue to increase and airlines look at various ways of reducing carrier weight."
Available in all colours, the 0.8mm leather also conforms to all CAA and FAA standards, and the company is the only UK leather supplier to be both Boeing and Airbus approved.
Working with over 150 airlines, airframe and seating manufacturers in more than 40 countries around the world, Muirhead has 165 years of expertise in leather manufacture. Its flameproofed leathers, developed in-house, provide comfortable, durable seating for millions of airline passengers flying upper class, business class and economy.
Its vast library of leather of more than 150 shades, textures and finishes represents the industry's most comprehensive in-stock collection yet.
In addition to these, Andrew Muirhead also produces bespoke matchings where a particular colour, texture or combination is required. The company also operates a next day delivery system, and has the capacity to meet bulk orders as well as the flexibility to deal with small but highly specific needs.
