STG Aerospace wins LED cabin lighting contract

Norwich, United Kingdom – Aircraft cabin lighting specialists, STG Aerospace, has been awarded a retrofit program with the U.K.’s largest leisure airline, Thomson Airways. 

 

The contract will see STG Aerospace retrofit nine of Thomson’s Boeing 737NG fleet and fourteen of its 757 fleet with liTeMood, a plug-and-play programmable blue/white LED mood lighting system designed specifically to retrofit commercial aircraft cabins.

 

liTeMood offers airlines a solution to bring existing non LED equipped aircraft cabins up to the same quality standard as brand new aircraft, helping them achieve impactful brand differentiation.

 

Easily installed, liTeMood features increased reliability over traditional lighting systems, thereby reducing ongoing maintenance costs while delivering environmental benefits. Not only is liTeMood up to 40kg lighter than original-fit fluorescent lighting, it also consumes 70% less power, increasing both the aircraft’s fuel and electrical efficiency.

 

Incorporating the latest research into the effects of ambient lighting, liTeMood has been developed to enhance the cabin ambience and the passenger experience. 

 

Marcus Williams, director of sales & marketing at STG Aerospace, commented: “We’re thrilled to be the LED lighting of choice for Thomson Airways. This retrofit program expands our liTeMood product range across even more aircraft and shows that STG Aerospace is leading the way, not just in photoluminescent technology, but in all aspects of cabin lighting.”

 

liTeMood is currently available for retrofit on 737NG and 757 aircraft, with further developments in progress, including 767 and A320.
