HALCO’s aerospace-grade hook & loop solutions are now part of Boeing’s most advanced wide-body aircraft.
As Boeing begins production of its groundbreaking 777X, HALCO is proud to contribute to this milestone in modern aviation. Our flame retardant (FR) hook & loop fasteners are now integrated into the seating of this next-generation aircraft—marking another achievement in aerospace innovation.
A Closer Look at the Boeing 777X
Boeing’s 777X is the largest and most fuel-efficient twin-engine jet ever built. Designed for long-distance travel and an elevated passenger experience, this wide-body aircraft features:
- Revolutionary folding wingtips for easier movement at busy airports
- Improved fuel efficiency that sets a new standard for wide-body jets
- Enhanced cabin design for greater comfort and flexibility
With a price tag topping $360 million per jet, it’s already in high demand—Emirates has placed an order for 150 aircraft.
How HALCO Supports the 777X Interior
Our flame retardant hook & loop fasteners are used in the seating components of the 777X, offering lightweight, secure, and easily adjustable fastening. Designed to meet the strictest flammability and durability standards, these solutions help ensure passenger safety and design flexibility within the aircraft cabin.
