AJW Group introduces SkyLeather Seats to Azerbaijan Airlines
AJW Technique Interiors, a division of AJW Group, announced it has signed a deal with Azerbaijan Airlines to install SkyLeather Seats, on three of its A319 and six of its A320 aircraft. This installation marks a leap forward in passenger comfort and sustainability within the aviation industry.
Developed in collaboration with manufacturing partner Autostop Aviation, SkyLeather offers significant advantages over natural leather. This innovative manmade material not only delivers enhanced durability and easy cleanability but also offers substantial weight savings, reducing the aircraft’s overall weight. By adopting SkyLeather, Azerbaijan Airlines will achieve a notable reduction in fuel consumption, contributing to a more sustainable and eco-friendly operation.
The implementation of SkyLeather also translates into significant cost savings for the airline. Its exceptional durability and easy-to-clean surface contribute to a reduction in Direct Maintenance Costs (DMC), allowing for efficient seat maintenance and a superior cabin appearance. These benefits extend to passengers, who will enjoy an enhanced flying experience with comfortable and visually appealing seating.
