ircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) – the only global event dedicated to the aircraft interiors industry – returns to Hamburg, Germany with an innovative new show planning tool: AIX Connect. Designed to help buyers meet exhibitors during the show and build business connections, the show planning tool is expected to play a pivotal role in supporting those sourcing cabin innovations, interiors, technologies, inflight entertainment, and connectivity solutions. More than 600 cabin interior suppliers will fill eight halls of the Hamburg Messe, and include major OEMs, Boeing and Airbus, and leading suppliers such as 3M, Acro Aircraft Seating, AD Aerospace, BAE Systems, EnCore, MGR Foamtex, Jamco Corporation, Collins Aerospace, Lufthansa Technik,
Panasonic Avionics and Recaro. The aerospace industry has faced many challenges since March 2020, but the interiors market is expected to grow from $27bn in 2018 to more than $40bn by 2025, around 5% a year, largely due to the record number of aircraft currently on order, the increasing passenger traffic numbers and a strong retrofitting market. Polly Magraw, AIX event director, said: “As we emerge from the pandemic, we know that suppliers and airlines are eager to return in-person to save time and resources in their efforts to fast track the industry’s recovery and seek the latest cabin innovations to enhance the passenger experience. We can’t wait to see the results of these incredibly important meetings as we support them to build the recovery." aircraftinteriorsexpo.com
