F/LIST is proud to be a key partner with a new icon: the ACH140, the latest aircraft in the Airbus Corporate Helicopters Line, unveiled at Verticon 2026. This new helicopter, geared towards private and business aviation customers, showcases a new brand design language for the ACH Line. While the aircraft itself is generating attention, one of the standout interior features comes from F/LIST which has designed and produced a new bespoke cabinet for the ACH140 cabin. 

The cabinet plays a central role in the aircraft’s interior architecture, combining refined materials, ergonomic design and the craftsmanship that has made F/LIST a trusted partner for premium aircraft interiors.

Developed in close collaboration with Airbus as part of the ACH Line interior concept, the cabinet helps reinforce the new design language introduced for the aircraft – stretched lines and ergonomic design features within an exceptional cabin space. The result is an elevated passenger environment tailored for discerning private and business aviation customers. 

The cabinet designed for the Airbus Helicopter ACH140 features a corpus finished in elegant satin black varnish. Two functional drawers, coated in a dark grey structural finish, underscore the balance between aesthetics and utility.

A particular highlight is the corpus attachments and drawer fronts, crafted in matte carbon with a distinctive 45-degree carbon fiber pattern. This sophisticated surface treatment accentuates the aircraft’s modern design DNA and demonstrates F/LIST’s mastery of high‑end composite materials. Further premium details include two cupholders lined with a brushed metal inlay, adding a subtly luxurious tactile experience. The console also integrates two storage boxes, each equipped with a leather‑covered flap. Inside, passengers will find dedicated holders for both an iPhone and an iPad, a thoughtful combination of elegance and functionality.

For serial production, the components will likely be manufactured in an advanced monocoque construction using autoclave technology. This approach ensures exceptional stability while keeping weight to a minimum, a decisive advantage in rotorcraft applications. In the CMF (Color, Material, Finish) area, end customers will be able to choose from a wide range of high-quality and sustainable materials, allowing for personalized configurations that align with the ACH philosophy of bespoke luxury.
