Pitch Aircraft Seating unveils new light weight, modular economy seat

Pitch Aircraft Seating, the expanding UK-based aircraft seat manufacturer, is unveiling its new light-weight economy seat, the PF2000, at Aircraft Interiors Expo. Designed for the high-density, single-aisle economy class retrofit market, this clean line seat has been created by a talented team which calls on a wealth of experience in the automotive and aviation market. Developed in co-operation with Intier Automotive, a division of Magna and leading automotive and premier aviation design specialists Design Q, Pitch’s innovative seating solution weighs less than 25kg for a triple unit, thanks to the extensive use of lightweight composite materials.
Pitch is confident that it is bringing its seat to market at the right time, when many airlines, with a close eye on rising fuel prices and fierce market competition are hesitant about committing a big outlay on new equipment. For its retrofit plans it is already advancing with plans to support the Airbus A320 family and the Boeing 737 series.
