Lightweight Fabricated Aircraft Seat Cushions
Aerofoam Industries is the leading supplier of aircraft seat cushions, fire-block covers, dress covers, and thermoformed components in the United States.
Our new line of lightweight aircraft seat cushions are built using high-performance foams and fire-blocks. These cushions are designed to give you a weight savings of 2 to 5 lbs. per passenger place, and still retain your current dress cover without compromising cushion comfort.
The Airline Industry is determined to find ways to cut weight and save fuel.
"If we can make a difference on one flight, by saving weight and multiply that by 500 airplanes in our fleet, the savings are huge."
"For each pound of extra weight removed from an aircraft we save 20 gallons of fuel annually. That equates to more than 13,000 gallons of fuel for our fleet of 655 aircraft."
That means the cushion costs, (bottom, back, and headrest) for the example above; you can see a return on your investment (ROI) in less than 1.2 years in fuel savings alone.
Let us assist you with the use of our lightweight aircraft seat cushions on your current and future programs. We have an FAA DER consultant on staff that can assist you with all your re-certifications.
