Beauty Is on the Inside
The latest generation of aircraft interiors inspires creative component design. Organic shapes, vivid color schemes, and flowing lines deliver an intimate customer experience, made possible by Toray's lightweight, durable, and appealing composite materials.
Innovative Materials for Aircraft Interiors
At Toray Advanced Composites, we are changing the future of the aerospace interiors industry. Our suite of lightweight thermoplastic and thermoset products are designed to meet highly demanding applications inside an aircraft while contributing to an aesthetic and comfortable atmosphere.
And because environmental responsibility is one of our core values, we achieve this without the environmental hazards that accompany traditional epoxy and phenolic-based materials. Yet our materials continue to meet fire, smoke, and toxicity (FST) safety requirements. With Toray, the future of the aerospace interiors market is cleaner than ever.
From service carts and storage bins to cabin linings, seat structures, and flooring, Toray Cetex® thermoplastic composites, reinforced with glass or carbon fibers, provide the results you need for your aircraft interior design.
Why Toray Materials?
Aircraft interior material solutions from Toray Advanced Composites offer exceptional processing, design, and cosmetic benefits.
Low Fire, Smoke, Toxicity (FST)
Toray Cetex® thermoplastic composites offer best in class FST & OSU properties (OSU <25/25), enabling a wider choice of decorative finishes for any application.
High-Quality Surface Finishes
Toray Cetex® thermoplastics deliver perfect surface finishes straight from the mold, eliminating costly and dirty fillers and sanding processes.
Short Cycle Times
Toray Cetex® reinforced thermoplastic laminates are orientated to your required specifications, and can be press formed in minutes and overmolded for one shot processing.
Color Decoration
Save time and weight. Toray Cetex® can be pigmented to a range of colors to either completely eliminate paint or reduce the volume required to achieve visual quality.
