Increasing customer demand is the motivation for a new agreement under which Tulpar Interior Group of Kazan will provide scheduled interior refurbishments from Jet Aviation’s maintenance facility at Moscow Vnukovo Airport. Tulpar is said to be the only company in Russia that provides a full range of aircraft interior services for commercial and VIP aircraft.
“Our customers can now schedule interior modifications during planned maintenance checks, improving aircraft utilization,” said Vitely Aleksikov, general director at Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo. “We are pleased to expand our on-site services and offer our customers this additional support.”
Although the agreement takes effect immediately, the services must be scheduled in advance. They include carpet replacement; minor repair or replacement of interior components; rejuvenation and protective coating of leather surfaces; fabrication of new seat upholstery; repair or replacement of coating or headlining on windows and other panels; and rectification of any decorative varnish defects on veneer and hard wood. 
Jet Aviation Moscow Vnukovo provides round-the-clock maintenance services, including line maintenance, defect rectification and AOG services for Bombardier, Gulfstream, Embraer and Hawker business aircraft.
