airline passenger experience?
Amenities, comfort, aesthetics
and top-notch service are certainly
important elements, but they
don’t tell the whole story. The
true differentiator between an
average experience and an
outstanding one can be summarised
in a single phrase: attention to detail.
Aircraft interior designers are
masters of detail. As they look for new
ways to make aircraft cabins feel like
luxurious retail and hotel environments,
designers are pushing the envelope with
their use of texture and decorative
finishes, and are searching for partners
to help them achieve their vision. Simona
Boltaron, the only manufacturer with
the ability to impress texture into
thermoplastic sheet, has become the
partner of choice for many of the
industry’s top designers.
“The reason I work with Boltaron is
that it has such a wide range of qualities,
textures, pigment types and printing
techniques,” says Catherine Barber, brand
development manager at Acumen Design.
“They understand the technical challenges,
but experiment with new treatments and
materials and provide customised
solutions.”
Simona Boltaron has a long history
of innovation, offering a variety of
attractive performance grades and
finishes, including metallics, pearlescents,
protected prints, translucents as well

opals to dark blues.
