What our clients say:

"When we at AeroVisto Group were looking for options to reduce cabin refurbishment downtime while increasing maintainability, Hermann Bauer and AeroVisto introduced us to an innovative solution: Decor Film Application. While other service providers remained fixed on traditional wood finishes, AeroVisto took a bold new approach by applying synthetic materials over wood surfaces — unconventional at first glance, but highly advantageous in practice.  From the first samples AeroVisto presented, we were more than convinced by both the visual appeal and tactile quality. The results have consistently exceeded our expectations: refurbishment downtime has been cut in half, costs reduced by 40%, and in our experience, maintainability has improved significantly. Over the past six years, we've implemented this technology across numerous aircraft in our fleet. 

What sets AeroVisto apart is not just their role as pioneers in this field. Even as other providers and OEMs have begun offering similar solutions, AeroVisto maintains its leadership position through superior quality, material expertise, and execution durability. Their commitment to innovation and problem-solving is remarkable — where others might have hesitated, Hermann Bauer and his team, with colossal engagement, delivered practical solutions that met our needs. 

After all, we are still convinced of this Solution. The ability to perform quick repairs remains one of the key advantages, making it invaluable for our operations. AeroVisto didn't just provide a service; they initiated a new approach to cabin refurbishment that has transformed how we maintain our fleet's interiors." 
Andreas Sperber
Director of Aircraft Delivery and Refurbishment
Winch Design and AeroVisto recently collaborated on a Global 5000 project, with Winch Design responsible for the interior design on behalf of the client.  

One of the standout features of this interior, mainly driven by budget, was the application of a decorative 3M film over the existing wood veneer and hardwood edges.  

AeroVisto brought their extensive experience to the project, meticulously applying the film to replicate the natural grain direction of real wood. This attention to detail ensured an authentic and seamless appearance throughout the cabin.

One of the key benefits of this technique is its practicality: if the film is damaged, the local affected area can be easily repaired without removing the cabinetry from the aircraft. From a design perspective, the 3M film offers a wide range of options, with various imitation wood grains and textures to choose from.

To ensure durability, the edges of the film were carefully secured to prevent peeling, and a protective ceramic finish was applied to enhance longevity and performance.

High quality look
and feel on attractive terms.

The atmosphere of a business jet is significantly influenced by its interior. From elegant wood finishes to modern carbon designs, the interior mirrors the high expectations of both owners and passengers for a private aircraft. However, even premium materials show wear over time, and business jet interiors can lose their initial luster, particularly in aircraft frequently used by charter companies. When it’s time for an interior refurbishment, a key question arises: how to address the numerous interior surfaces—cabinets, doors, panels, covers, and even pull-out and conference tables. With unlimited time and budget, existing surfaces can be intricately varnished, polished, or entirely re-veneered. Yet, this isn’t always feasible, not just due to high costs but also the extensive time required for such refurbishments. Decor Film Application emerges as the ideal solution in these scenarios, offering a swift, cost-effective, and high-quality alternative to traditional refurbishment methods.

High Durability and Extensive Design Options.

Our professional film applications present a compelling alternative to traditional veneering and painting of jet interior surfaces. They not only shorten the refurbishment period, reducing aircraft downtime, but also excel in durability for daily flight operations, alongside offering a wide array of design choices with modern materials. However, opting for film applications necessitates choosing an experienced professional to ensure the premium results that aircraft owners and passengers rightfully anticipate from a business jet interior.

Cost-Effective Solution to Veneering and Painting

Decor Film Applications provide a visually appealing and valuable upgrade for old or worn surfaces. Unlike the more time-consuming processes of re-veneering or repainting, film application can cut the interior refurbishment duration of an aircraft by at least 50%, while also being considerably more affordable. This makes film applications especially appealing for projects where time and budget are key considerations. Beyond the attractive pricing, film applications offer superior maintainability compared to all other alternatives.
