F/LIST, the Austrian pioneer for high-end aircraft cabin interiors, has significantly expanded its presence in Dubai. Due to the increasing demand for high-quality aftermarket services and customized cabin materials for customers from the Middle East, the company has more than doubled its space to a total of 900m2.

The new F/LIST location is located in the Dubai South Freezone in the Mohammed Bin Rashid Aerospace Hub at Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International Airport. In order to optimally serve the growing customer base, the facility will house an expanded team of 25 experts, a showroom with an extensive selection of materials and customization options, as well as specially designed workshops and studios. From here, the technicians will offer comprehensive interior aftermarket services, including upholstery and joinery repairs.

"As business aviation continues to grow in the Middle East, Dubai, in particular the Mohammed Bin Rashid Aerospace Hub in Dubai South, has established itself as a central location for the industry. Its location, excellent connectivity and strong infrastructure provide the ideal base for F/LIST to support customers across the region," says Michael Müller, Managing Director Aviation, F/LIST.

The new location was chosen for its proximity to customers and the efficient ecosystem in the busy aviation center. The showroom presents a curated selection of more than 1,000 material samples, including wood veneers, stone surfaces, leather, fabrics, wicker and metal surfaces. Visitors can experience the entire collection on site.

"All our materials are designed for aesthetics, functionality and durability and are fully qualified for use in aviation," explains Markus Schröcker, Group Director Customer Relations & Sales and head of the expanded Dubai site. "We know that we need to develop products that exude elegance while meeting stringent hygiene, weight efficiency and sustainability requirements. Our modern location is a reliable point of contact for aftermarket services and at the same time offers the opportunity to present our interior expertise in a specially created environment. We are convinced that our customers will greatly appreciate the proximity and quick access to our services."

The expansion underlines the continuous development of F/LIST, which now offers a diverse portfolio for the residential sector and - under the F/YACHTING brand - for the yachting industry in addition to more than ten global locations. In addition, the product portfolio for premium airline cabins was recently launched. It is expected that the Dubai location will be an important entry point for regional airlines to familiarize themselves with the F/LIST range and subsequently deepen the exchange with the Commercial Aviation Division at the Austrian headquarters in Thomasberg.

The Group's portfolio includes the industry's first fully heat-release compliant wood veneer, the F/LAB Stone Inlay, which brings the aesthetics of natural stone into the cabin, and a range of bio-based products: F/LAB Aenigma and F/LAB Natural Oil Varnish. All materials comply with F/LIST's sustainable philosophy in terms of production, raw materials and weight efficiency. This responsible approach reduces waste and underlines the company's commitment to responsible innovation.
