ST Engineering has made an announcement regarding its Commercial Aerospace business. They have received the Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) for their groundbreaking cabin lavatory solution called ACCESS. Initially designed for the Airbus A320 family, ACCESS has been developed with passengers with reduced mobility (PRMs) in mind.
What sets ACCESS apart is its ability to expand, providing an additional 40% of space to accommodate a passenger in a wheelchair and their caregiver. This unique lavatory solution is the world’s first of its kind. After the successful certification for implementation on the A320 aircraft, ST Engineering is now focused on making ACCESS available on the Boeing 737 platform.
