27/09/2012
Andrew Muirhead’s high-performance, low-carbon leather will be used in all cabins of the new A380, the B737-800 and for all headrests in the A330-300 aircraft on the Malaysian national carrier's updated fleet.
Colin Wade, managing director of Andrew Muirhead, said: “We are very proud to have been selected by Malaysia's national carrier to supply the leather for its recent fleet refurbishment and for the all-new flagship A380. Being involved with such a pioneering new aircraft as the Airbus double-deck is a great honour, and the whole team is proud of our growing relationship with the award-winning Malaysia Airlines.”
The Scottish leather-adorned A380 will commence operations on the airline’s international network in November.
Andrew Muirhead supplies over 130 airlines and aircraft manufacturers with leather, and produces leather for other transport, domestic, commercial, corporate and specialist uses. It was established in 1840 and exports to more than 60 countries.
