Italy’s Adler Group (Booth 4227) is showing its reinterpretation of “color and trim”—an automotive design term for “color and materials”—in a cabin mockup of a luxury interior for a Leonardo AW169 at Heli-Expo 2019. Integral to the display is the craftsmanship of Tramontano leathers, the high-tech processing of carbon-fiber and the design of computer and communications technology for maximum customer comfort.

“Our goal,” said Daniele Romiti, v-p of the aerospace division of Adler Group, “is to place the customer’s desires at the center and to create conditions that result in an interior that is fully in sync with their requirements.” In addition to the AW169 mockup, Adler Group is showing another seating configuration on the floor and next to it is a carbon fiber chassis of an Alfa Romeo 4C.

Separately, TTA Tecno Tessile Adler (TTA) and JHAS announced the signature of a partnership agreement for the design and production of aeronautical seats, including economy, premium, business, and first-class seats.
