Weight saving is currently becoming a top priority within the aviation industry due to the ever increasing oil prices. With this in mind and without compromising on our high quality standards, Desso has developed a woollen carpet with a 25% (400 g/m²) weight saving in comparison to the standard carpet weight currently available in the market. Intensive internal and on board trials have proved the high quality characteristics of this new carpet.
In addition to the high performance qualities, the design possibilities are also not limited with this innovative development. In fact Desso has created even more design opportunities by introducing a 3-frame carpet at a 15% weight saving in relation to a standard 2-frame carpet.
This results in a huge advantage for the airline because all existing carpet designs are interchangeable with Desso's new low weight carpets, meaning no expensive restyling or refurbishing programmes are necessary to change the carpets.
The new low weight aviation carpets from Desso combine luxury and comfort for the passenger whilst satisfying the ongoing search for weight reduction, therefore giving a whole new meaning to the phrase "travelling light".
