Recaro Aircraft Seating nominated for the 2013 Crystal Cabin Award
Schwaebisch Hall/Hamburg, Germany. “Recaro goes green” – the company has been following this strategy with dedication for years. As one part of this strategy, the aircraft seat supplier examines the ecological implications of its seats from a scientific perspective. The knowledge gained in this life cycle assessment (LCA) influences product development at an early stage, with positive effects for the airlines – both in ecological and in economic terms. For this assessment, Recaro Aircraft Seating was nominated for the 2013 Crystal Cabin Award and has now made it to the final round of the competition. Winners will be announced at the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg on April 9, 2013.
