Recaro Aircraft Seating (Recaro) and Embraer have agreed a deal to develop a Supplier Furnished Equipment (SFE) catalogue of seats for E1 and E2 aircraft. The catalogue will include the BL3710 and SL3710 economy class seats.
Development of the SFE catalogue will begin in Q3 2023. Seats will become eligible for offers in mid-2024.
“Joining forces with Recaro Aircraft Seating means Embraer can offer more alternatives to our customers, making our products even more attractive,” says Roberto Chaves, chief procurement officer at Embraer. “This collaboration reinforces our commitment to enhancing the passenger experience and delivering unparalleled value to our clients. The Recaro seats add another dimension to our interiors, more choice and less weight for our customers, and more comfort and amenities for their passengers.”
The catalogue will be based on BL3710 and SL3710 seats, two “best-selling” Recaro products tailored to short and mid-range flights.
“Our entrance into the regional jet market has generated great feedback,” says Mark Hiller, chief executive of Recaro, “and our seats now being featured in an SFE catalogue will help us take our customer support to the next level.”
