F/List Unveils Three New Finishes Lines

Austria-based F/List, which specializes in high-end interiors for aircraft, yachts, and homes, is expanding its array of business jet cabin finishes. These new finishes include lines of metals, fresco, and glass wood veneers that incorporate new textures, dimensions, and designs.

F/List's Pure Metal Finish employs metals and alloys that allow for novel patterns and textures on any surface type and structural shape. Offered using copper, tin, bronze, or brass, the line is available in four surfaces: smooth veneer, fine stippled, coarse stippled, and brushed. The finishes weigh 20 percent less than conventional metal finishes, F/List said.

Its Fresco Décor finishes—used on bulkheads, furniture fronts, or sidewalls—add “luxuriously embossed, three-dimensional surfaces to normally one-dimensional areas,” the company said. Employing Ultraleather, Ultrasuede, or certain other soft materials, the finishes can be formed into various shapes with embosses as deep as four millimeters, which F/List said creates subtle light and shadow effects. The materials bring more natural forms to the interior and have sound-dampening properties.

Meanwhile, its Glass Wood Veneer finishes add an ultra-deep gloss appearance to wood veneers by incorporating layers of Aviationglass. The finish, which F/List described as high-tech and hygienic, can be customized as inlays or used to provide graphical highlights over defined surfaces. Layers of mirrors can be added to display corporate logos or other images. Interactive technologies can be incorporated to optimize cabin functionality, F/List added.

The finishes are all certified for aviation use and available immediately.

“We anticipate that these stunning new options will inspire aviation designers, OEMs, and completion centers to think even more creatively about interior styling,” said Anita Gradwohl, group director of customer relations and sales. “Cabins now represent offices, leisure areas, conference rooms, and homes, often all in one flight, which is why we want to provide our customers with new ways of enhancing them.”
