COUNTERTOPS

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Countertops in aircraft lavatories, galleys, and bars have seen little design evolution over the years. Safran introduces innovative solid surface countertops to enhance customization, making these areas more welcoming and reducing maintenance needs.
Concept to Reality
Safran sought an alternative to real stone due to its weight and brittleness, aiming for a sophisticated look akin to marble or granite. Since 2007, Corian® has been developed as a viable alternative, with Safran's manufacturing process now mature and scalable for commercial aviation.
Modern Design in Aviation
Safran's process involves layering solid surface sheets, allowing for high-volume production, design flexibility, and shorter lead times. This method eliminates the need for molds, offering unique design solutions.
Aeronautics Requirements
Safran has certified materials for commercial jet cabins, offering avant-garde designs. The solid surface material is antimicrobial, easy to clean, and highly resistant to scratches and impacts. It can be resurfaced to maintain its appearance.
Design Flexibility
Solid surface layers allow for endless design possibilities, including engraving and color filling. The absence of molds enables unlimited sink geometries and patterns.
Product Offer
Safran offers solutions for both line fit and retrofit markets, extending the life of cabin monuments and providing new design opportunities.
Innovations
Safran has developed lightweight countertops without compromising robustness. The use of opaque and translucent layers allows for integrated LED lighting and induction charging capabilities.
Achievements
Safran offers 60 solid surface colors, manufactures 8 countertops daily, and has delivered over 1600 units to 35 airlines as of August 2018, maintaining a 100% on-time delivery record with zero rejections.

FROM CONCEPT TO REALITY It all started with a challenge : finding an alternative to the use of real stone due to its inherent weight & brittleness. Yet, business jet customers want a sophisticated look and feel as close as possible to marble or granite. Since 2007, Safran has developed and qualified Corian® as an innovative alternative solution to meet this demand. With over a decade of experience in business aviation interiors, the unique countertop manufacturing process that Safran developed has been brought to maturity and adapted for large scale industrialization. Commercial aviation is now...

WEIGHT REDUCTION : Safran has performed in depth development to obtain the perfect material combination for the lightest countertops with no compromise on the robustness. Depending on geometry, solid surface countertops are equivalent, or lesser in weight than injection molded countertops, while bringing resistance to impact to another order of magnitude. LED LIGHTING : Using different layers of opaque & translucide solid surface material, opens a whole new world for pioneer designers. Solid surface thicknesses variation permits to integrate light patterns, logos, etc... Aircraft leasing companies...
