Global Inflight Products (GIP) is introducing two innovations this quarter, the compact duvet and the “air” mattress.

Both on display at IFSA Global EXPO this fall, the compact duvet is noticeably smaller than GIPs’ other duvet blanket offerings—without compromising on passenger comfort and warmth. Still large when unfolded, the duvet folds down to half the size as the other and is significantly more lightweight, making it easier for storage in the cabin.

The “air” mattress adds comfort to the cabin while reducing cabin weight and laundering costs. The mattress, made of RPET, features a foldable layer of air-inflated tubing covered in a netted fabric. The product is recyclable, reducing energy, costs and logistics of dry cleaning. The product is now available, for US$2.99.

"Green Is Possible of Global Inflight Products is always changing inflight solutions to enhance onboard comfort and reduce costs,” says Zine Badissy, President and Chairman, Global Inflight Products.
