DOY Design supplies Ultra-Slim seats to Heart Aerospace
DOY Design has supplied 30 PAX places of their Ultra-Slim seats to Heart Aerospace in Sweden. The prototype seats, built by DOY in Coventry, have been installed in Heart’s first full-size demonstrator aircraft and were selected for their slim construction and lightweight design, the September 17 press release said.
The Ultra-Slim seats are designed to complement the latest regional and short-haul aircraft with an extremely thin profile and a distinctive silhouette that helps to create greater space and higher light levels in the cabin.
The weight and robustness of the seats are optimized by using the latest manufacturing techniques and distilling the design elements down to their purest form. The result is a highly focused seat capable of making a significant reduction to the manufacturing and operational carbon footprint.
“It’s been fantastic to work with the team at Heart Aerospace and be involved with a project that has the potential to deliver a more sustainable way to fly,” said Gary Doy, Director of DOY Design.
