New testing method for the system validation of recyclable cabin monuments
The “CirKle” project addresses the global goal of “environmentally sustainable aviation” and makes a valuable contribution to the reusability of cabin components in accordance with the German Circular Economy Act (KrWG). The cabin structures currently in use worldwide consist of phenolic resin-impregnated honeycomb panels that cannot be recycled. The global goal of “CirKle” is to manufacture a new generation of semi-finished products for cabin structures and to directly market recycling-compatible, structurally identical cabin structures—particularly for the retrofit market.
