RECARO Holding has released its 2025 financial results, reporting total revenue of €723 million and marking another year of double-digit growth. With an order book approaching €3 billion, the company recorded a highly successful year driven by new products and strong order intake. This momentum is expected to continue into 2026 as RECARO Gaming and RECARO Rail expand their presence, while RECARO Aircraft Seating undergoes a significant ramp-up in the aviation sector.
To support industry growth, the company continues to allocate more than 10% of its resources to innovation, product development and new projects. Increased investment will be directed towards composite technologies to meet rising demand in aviation. In parallel, RECARO Aircraft Seating is advancing its “space2grow” initiatives to better serve customers and prepare its facilities for future expansion. A key example is a recently announced multi-million-euro investment in infrastructure at its Poland site, aimed at increasing office and production capacity while enhancing technological capabilities.
The global workforce has grown to nearly 3,400 employees, with 250 new hires over the past year, including 150 at the Aircraft Seating headquarters in Schwäbisch Hall, Germany. This expansion comes alongside ongoing efficiency measures and the integration of AI-driven solutions across the business.
Following another record-breaking year, RECARO produced nearly 120,000 passenger seats across all classes in 2025. The Aircraft Seating division is now preparing to scale up production of its R3 long-haul economy seat, already in service with airlines such as Iberia, Aer Lingus and Malaysia Airlines. At the same time, the company is targeting market leadership in the business class segment, with its R7 seat delivering enhanced comfort for passengers flying with carriers including Iberia and LATAM.
