New podcast episode: Lisa Conway (Gen Phoenix) on saving fuel with ELeather

Innovation in aviation sustainability also passes through the cabin or through the aircraft seat, to be more exact.

Our guest in this episode of the podcast is Lisa Conway, Chief Revenue Officer at Gen Phoenix, a company that turns scraps of leather into ELeather, a material that is ideally suited to cover aircraft seats.

This upcycles material is actually lighter and more durable than traditional leather, so, besides saving landfill space and preventing the release of methanes from the decomposition of the leather’s organic material, this technology can also help airlines save a little bit of fuel and emissions.

So, how do they do it? And why is it not more universally used? We are going to try to answer to all these questions and some more in this conversation with Lisa.

Tune in to learn how the humble aircraft seat cover can do its bit in the quest to make flying more sustainable!
