An atmosphere of excellence.
An approach that goes beyond a physical product, at Mirus Aircraft Seating our processes prioritise a higher standard of service at every level.
Collaborations over transactions.
Assets built to last — aircraft seating and business relationships alike. While our approach to engineering focuses upon agility, innovation, creativity and quality, our service is centred wholly on people. It is in our DNA to work with our customers to build a product that meets individual brand requirements. Our team will work with you to incorporate your values into our products, helping to produce more memorable passenger experiences and solidify a truly collaborative experience.
Primed for take-off.
Our fully-integrated, state-of-the-art production system intertwines with a ground-up approach to quality systems and supply chain management; ensuring industrial reliability, speed and scalability.
Committed to delivering aircraft seats quickly and efficiently, our standard seat lead-time is 6-8 weeks (assuming no modification is required). We also offer a fast-track dispatch service where we hold a limited number of seats in stock.
Production without compromise — we use quality assurance tools tailored to aerospace-specific requirements alongside the latest automated process control technology to ensure error-proofing, repeatability, waste reduction and products of the ultimate calibre.
From first sketch to final fit-out.
An entirely full-service production, every aspect of bringing our aircraft seats to fruition is an in-house process. From design brief and concept sketching to prototyping, testing, certification, manufacturing, and finally, delivery and aftercare support — our team personally shapes your product at every phase.
- CAE – static and dynamic simulation capability

Thinking of tomorrow.
A vision for environmental responsibility executed from day one. At Mirus we seek to proactively minimise the environmental impacts from our own operations, as well as play our part in reducing aviation’s impact on the global environment.
As a leading manufacturer of aircraft seats, with innovation at our core, we are well placed to ensure the products we develop contribute to achieving greater sustainability. Our seats are amongst the very lightest available and this helps our airline customers reduce fuel burn and CO2 emissions. Our seats are also amongst the most robust and most reliable in-service, which means reduced spare parts manufacture and logistics. When a part is required to be replaced, our seats are designed so components can be easily separated into constituent parts for ease of recycling through careful use of adhesives and mechanical fastenings. Functions that are only enabled by our continual investment in our state-of-the-art facilities and technologies.
“For each seat we produce, we use less energy, generate less waste and emit less carbon”
– Adam Challenor, Technical Director
Igniting innovation.
Mirus operates with a history and pedigree in the aerospace and automotive sectors. By drawing on the very best practices from both, we offer what we believe is one of the most specialised and compelling value propositions in the industry.
Big thinkers functioning without fear of failure, our culture cultivates ingenuity at every touchpoint. From highly collaborative design teams to specialists with diverse backgrounds and expertise to never-stagnant development processes, innovation sits at the core of our operation. An attitude only strengthened by our in-house dynamic testing capabilities, our designs are constantly optimised to feed innovation, reduce weight, and improve sustainability.
