Insperial, a global surface solutions group has today announced the launch of a dedicated Colour, Material and Finish (CMF) service for aviation, the first of its kind for the company.
Building on its portfolio, Insperial brings colour, material and finish together into a single, cohesive service. It will enable airlines, private jet operators and the wider industry to align materials and surfaces across the cabin, creating environments that are consistent in both performance and passenger experience.
At the heart of the new service is Lucie Weber, who joined Insperial as CMF industrial designer following last year’s Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX). Weber developed her expertise across both the sports and aviation industries. She began her career at Decathlon, working on running and trail products, before moving to Dassault Aviation. There, she was based at the company’s headquarters in St. Cloud and later spent nearly two years in the US at the Dassault Falcon Jet completion centre in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Weber’s role also included sourcing and implementing materials, integrating new finishes into showrooms, and refining material performance and assembly within aircraft interiors.
“At present, we’re seeing the aviation industry looking to create more natural, harmonious moods inside the cabin,” Weber said. “We help them identify on-trend colours, refined material palettes and improved finishes, all with the goal of shaping a cohesive design language throughout the aircraft, where materials can work seamlessly together. By collaborating closely with our customers, we ensure that every surface, from seat upholstery to wall panels and trims, contributes to a thoughtfully designed cabin experience, where colour, material and finish are considered as one.”
At AIX 2026, Insperial will showcase these solutions through its latest design story, Agoria Legend, presented as part of the company’s broader CMF design catalogue.
Inspired by the Art Deco era, Agoria Legend is a design collection reinterpreting the glamour and geometry of the 1920s through a contemporary lens.
The CMF catalogue is structured around three core collections; Organic, Essential and Elevate; each designed to support a wide range of client needs while inspiring new approaches to cabin interiors.
Alexis Gabillon, group CEO of Insperial, added: “CMF has become a strategic differentiator. Airlines that invest in a thoughtful, harmonious cabin design create a passenger experience that is genuinely felt. We were delighted to welcome Lucie to the team, and within a short space of time, her expertise has enabled us to offer our airline customers something no one else in our industry can. Our dedicated, commercially aware design vision brings together the latest colour and material trends into solutions that are certifiable, scalable and built for aviation.”
