Industrial Solutions
Tailored solutions qualified according to AIMS standards
Lightweight structures play a crucial role in aircraft construction, particularly inside the cabin. Adhesives effectively join materials without adding unnecessary weight, making bonding the ideal method for lightweight construction in aircraft.
In cabins, adhesives are used for different applications, such as lighting and fastening elements, seats, cockpit doors, and electronics. In addition to supporting lightweight designs, adhesives must also meet stringent requirements for temperature and flame retardancy (FST conformity).
DELO offers products specifically tailored for aircraft interiors that fulfill these criteria. Some of our products are even qualified and approved according to AIMS standards.
Fasteners
DELO adhesives for lightweight and aesthetic fasteners
Fasteners in aircraft interior applications are used for assembling and securing interior components such as cables, seating, overhead bins and flooring. Unlike exterior fasteners, which are focused on structural integrity under aerodynamic forces, interior fasteners have additional requirements within the cabin environment: The assembly of fasteners must maintain the aesthetics of the cabin designs, and it must be as lightweight as possible to not compromise the safety and fuel efficiency of the aircraft.
Moreover, the installation and removal of these fasteners must be easy for the maintenance personnel, while the assembly must provide high strength to ensure that the cabin components remain securely in place during flight.
DELO offers specialized adhesives for fastener applications, including ONSERTS®, that comply with strict aircraft standards and deliver a range of benefits.

Inserts & Pins
Reliable solutions for aircraft interior assembly
Inserts and pins are vital for mounting, securing, and connecting various interior elements in aircraft cabins like seats and storage bins. They require precise and reliable installation to offer strong structural support. Since these inserts and pins must often be installed in hard-to-reach spaces, selecting the right materials that allow easy processing is essential.
DELO provides high-performance adhesive solutions specifically designed for inserts and pins in aircraft interiors.
Honeycomb Panels
Optimized products that enable efficient bonding processes
Honeycomb panels are the preferred choice for aircraft cabin constructions, offering exceptional strength and stability while remaining incredibly lightweight. These panels are the preferred structures for the manufacture of aircraft cabins – from floors, and ceilings, to kitchen/toilet walls and cabin dividers”. The bonding of these panel-structures must be highly durable to withstand mechanical stresses and environmental conditions during flight, and their complex geometric designs require flexible materials for secure joining.
DELO adhesives provide the ideal solution for bonding honeycomb panels in aircraft cabins. Have a look at our tailored solutions that deliver reliability and efficiency in aircraft cabin construction.
