Tedlar will exhibit its long-standing solutions for cleanable, durable, customizable and safe airplane interiors at the event.Tedlar is a significantly lightweight and durable protective material. It is crucial to improve aircraft performance by enabling paneling systems that boost efficiency and reduce waste. Tedlar film fulfills or exceeds Federal Aviation Administration and European Union Aviation Safety Agency regulations, is manufactured in the United States, and contains no PFAS.Tedlar will also demonstrate new innovations, such as photorealistic printed films for fully unique and custom finishes, touch-up Tedlar tape, metallic treatments, new hues, and more.DuPont Tedlar is pleased to support Isovolta Aviation and Transportation, a leading maker of technical laminates and composite materials, in the launch of a new lighter-weight ornamental foil solution for airplane sidewalls based on Tedlar. This new system, called Airdec FW, is substantially lighter than existing alternatives, such as powder coatings.FW stands for feather-weight, which describes this new generation of decorative films that are 25% lighter and offer a broad and colorful choice of colors, textures, sizes and adhesives. Crucially, they maintain the same application process and are virtually indistinguishable from the standard AIRDEC-F1 and AIRDEC-GE series.Shares of DuPont have gained 20% over the past year compared with a 2.8% rise of its industry.
