Mr Duncan commented: “We’re proud of our long-standing relationship with SpiceJet and equally delighted to have won this award with them. The contract is our first major retrofit win for liTeMood in the Asia-Pacific region and, as an existing saf-Tglo customer, SpiceJet have enabled us to demonstrate our total cabin lighting solution in this hugely important market.”

STG Aerospace has an impressive record of winning awards, including the Queen’s Award for Enterprise four times, a Boeing Best Performance Excellence Award eight times, an APEX Award for Best Cabin Innovation and a PAX International Readership Award for Best Cabin Interior Enhancement.
