Thermal comfort is very individual and perceptibly influences the well-being of passengers. Lantal’s latest innovation, the Seat Heating & Cooling System, enables highest personal comfort and well-being and creates an individually adjustable microclimate independently of the cabin temperature. Visitors to this year’s Aircraft Interiors Expo have the opportunity to test this special function on site at Stand 6E70 in Hall B6.

The following experience is familiar to every traveler. You are sitting in an airplane and feel either too hot or too cold. You are uncomfortable and have few options to improve your microclimate, since cabin temperature control is centralized. Selective temperature control for seats as found in upscale automobiles has not been available in aircraft so far. This latest Lantal innovation delivers a personalized microclimate for First and Business Class passengers, regardless of the temperature in the cabin.

Seat climate features such as heating and cooling can be combined to achieve genuine well-being. The result is optimized seat temperature profiles for each passenger with continuous moisture extraction to assure dry seat surfaces and an exceptional travel experience.
