The Global Aerospace Overhead Stowage Bin Market: Highlights

Overhead bins are originally more than a shelf with a door. They have grown in size over the years and yet have not reached the optimum level. Recent passenger surveys revealed that the lack of overhead space is one of the biggest gripes about airline industry today. Airlines keep on conveying to OEMs about their passengers’ complaints regarding the lack of space in the overhead bins. They are seeking bins that are large, easier and safer to use, aesthetically good, and easy to maintain.

Both Boeing and Airbus are developing new stowage bins by carving out every single centimeter of space in such a way that will accommodate more number of rollaboard bags in the aircraft. Boeing is well ahead than the nearest rival Airbus in understanding the passenger complaints regarding the lack of space in the overhead bins. The company developed large pivot bins for its Sky Interior design in 2010 which is used in the smaller B737 fuselage. Boeing celebrated the delivery of thousand Sky interior designed B737 well before Airbus launched new space bin in the year 2014.

Most of the major overhead stowage bin manufacturers are working with OEMs for developing the bins that are lightweight, aesthetically good, and large in size to accommodate more number of rollaboard bags in the cabin. Recently, FACC AG jointly worked with Airbus and developed a new modular pivot overhead stowage bin (pOHSB) for A320 family which increases the overhead stowage volume by 10% and allows increased capacity for up to 60 percent more luggage.
