Showing at Aircraft Interiors Expo 2011, Supracor’s lightweight, low profile Stimulite® honeycomb cushions give passengers more living space
SAN JOSE, CA, September 7, 2011—Supracor will be showing a variety of new seat cushions
featuring Stimulite honeycomb at this year’s Aircraft Interiors Expo 2011 in Seattle, Washington
on September 12th – 14th.
A new and revolutionary alternative to conventional foam cushioning and at a fraction of the thickness, cushions made from Stimulite provide exceptional comfort in a low profile (1”-1.5” thick) that contours
to the anatomy.
A flexible form of aerospace honeycomb, Stimulite’s cellular matrix is over 90 percent air, depending on cell size. Thousands of tiny perforations in the cell walls circulate air both horizontally and vertically to control heat and moisture while the “footprint” of the cells and their flexing action stimulates blood flow to enhance circulation. As an optimum strength-to-weight material, seat cushions made from Stimulite can be thinner than foam cushions, giving passengers more living space for greater comfort.
Supracor’s patented Stimulite honeycomb is featured in Boeing’s new 787 Dreamliner and 747-800 comfort-enhanced crewrest quarters. Its low profile performance was recognized by the military where Stimulite is the specified ejection seat cushion for the F-18 Hornet fighter jets, giving more headspace in the cockpit.
One hundred percent recyclable, Stimulite honeycomb is available in various configurations, ranging
from soft to firm and single to multiple layers, that can be customized to meet aircraft seat design specifications. Stimulite meets all flammability requirements with standard dress cover materials.
Supracor is the originator of fusion-bonded honeycomb technology, a flexible form of aerospace honeycomb utilized in products that promote the health and safety of people and animals. Initially applied to medical seating and sleep support surfaces for pressure sore prevention, Stimulite honeycomb is the basis of a revolutionary line of personal care products.
Supracor’s Stimulite honeycomb can be found in high-performance applications such as military body armor, sports protective equipment and bumpers for amusement park rides.
All of Supracor’s products are sustainably made in California’s Silicon Valley from environmentally-friendly materials.
