About us
A premium seating OEM built to turn cabin concepts into certifiable, manufacturable reality.
AliceBluAero was born from a desire to become a worldclass, flexible and creative Business and First Class seat supplier. We draw on a rich heritage from our home in N.Ireland, a globally recognised aerospace region often cited as producing around onethird of the world's aircraft seats.
Our sister company, Blue Eagle Precision, has been a key supplier to many seating OEMs over a 25+ year history.
Being based in N.Ireland gives AliceBluAero a hub of essential skills and aircraftapproved suppliers, establishing it as an optimal location for a pioneering seating OEM.
Evolving directly from this supply chain gives us practical advantages: it reduces the risks associated with longdistance worldwide deliveries and significantly strengthens our aftermarket support capability.
We are not an industrial design house. We are the engineering (APDOA) and production (POA) team that takes a cabin vision, converts it into engineering definition, and then builds it to approved data with controlled quality and traceability.
Our philosophy centres on staying compact in size to ensure we remain agile and responsive, positioning ourselves as a premier supplier of aircraft seating renowned for unparalleled achievements in the industry.
Our mission extends beyond the provision of seating solutions; we are dedicated to cultivating a company culture and operational processes that stand out for their excellence.
This commitment is driven by our ambition to elevate the standards of quality and customer service to unprecedented heights, ensuring AliceBluAero is synonymous with reliability and excellence in the aircraft seating sector.

What makes AliceBluAero different
Most programmes fail on predictable things, late design churn, weak conformity control, and production systems that look fine on a slide and collapse under rate. Our focus is eliminating those failure modes by treating certification and manufacturability as first-class design requirements.
We position the programme so regulatory gates and lab availability become the pacing items, not capability gaps.
-
We manage the highest-impact technical and regulatory risks through upfront analysis, conservative design choices where they matter, and evidence-based verification:
Dynamic performance (16g or 14g) supported by correlated analysis and early sub-assembly testing.
HIC corridor control via head-path sweeps and defined energy-management options.
Flammability risk reduced through early material stack screening before trim freeze.
Conformity risk reduced through traveller control, inspection plans tied to drawing notes, rapid MRB escalation.
Regulatory interpretation shifts handled through early liaison, documented positions, alternate test-matrix pivots.
-
UK CAA Part 21 Subpart G Production Organisation Approval (POA), UK.21G.2732, aircraft passenger seats and cabin furnishings.
The POA framework supports production to approved design data, conformity control, and authorised release within the scope of the approval.
Structural testing executed, dynamic and static structural test campaign completed during the prior programme with aviation authority witnessing.
Audit and compliance records can be made available under NDA.
Production system built for traceability and rate
AliceBluAero is implementing a single-piece flow production model designed to keep manufacturing risk low and quality high:
Sub-assemblies built and installed at dedicated stations to avoid cross-shop shuttling and WIP buildup.
Kitted logistics to point-of-use, calibrated tools and right-sized jigs or fixtures at station.
Connected stations with controlled digital work instructions, inspection gates, and ECN overlays.
Conformance and traceability supported by a POA-controlled backbone, GRN to job to CoC linkage from day one.
Quality built into the process, not inspected in at the end.
-
AliceBluAero has strong partners who supported us through our most challenging year, 2025. That experience tightened relationships, improved readiness, and left us with suppliers who know the programme, the standards, and the urgency. It is a practical advantage in a supply-constrained market.
-
Small enough to care. Big enough to deliver.
We stay agile and responsive while operating with OEM-level discipline. The outcome is simple, a premium seating partner that behaves like a certifiable manufacturer from day one.
