Next month, winners of the 2024 RedCabin Awards will be announced to recognize innovative aircraft cabin designs that address industry problems relating to things like sustainability, comfort, space, and cost.
One shortlisted sustainability concept is from the boutique Italian aerospace company Optimares. Known as "SoFab," the airline business-class seat uses a convertible sofa bed in lieu of a fully lie-flat reclining seat.
Optimares says this provides more passenger space while still weighing significantly less than competing options thanks to fewer materials used. In the airline industry, every pound saved counts when it comes to fuel burn and the company's bottom line.
Given its sleek and cost-focused design, SoFab has caught the eye of industry professionals. It's up for an award for sustainability from RedCabin, and it was a finalist for the International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2024.
Take a look at the Optimares "SoFab" business class.
