Replin by Hainsworth, a manufacturer of premium fabrics for aviation and transport interiors, announced that the company is celebrating its 80th anniversary since the business was founded in 1945 by Dr. Maurus Banyai, a Hungarian refugee who specialized in textile innovation.
The company was formed in post‑war Britain and is known for revolutionising machine‑woven wool textiles. The company historically supplied fabrics to Cunard liners, Heathrow Airport terminals and the U.K. Houses of Parliament. In 2015, Replin was acquired by a 242-year-old textile mill and woolen cloth manufacturer, AW Hainsworth, merging the two companies.
Ellie Parkes, International Sales Manager at Replin, says, “Over the last 80 years, the Replin brand has developed side by side with some of the biggest names in aviation, becoming synonymous with quality and style in the global cabin-design industry. As part of the AW Hainsworth group, this reputation is enhanced by over 240 years of textile innovation. Our fabrics help to elevate the onboard experience, enhancing the airline’s brand aesthetic and ultimately improving the way people feel when they’re travelling by air,” says Ellie Parkes, international sales manager at Replin.
Replin is a supplier to international airline clients, including British Airways, Lufthansa, American Airlines, Qatar Airways and Virgin Atlantic.
The company recently joined the Green Cabin Alliance, committing to mindful manufacturing and reducing the environmental impact of aircraft cabins. Earlier this year, Replin launched a new collection of fabrics made of undyed fibers and announced a long-term goal of reaching net zero emissions by 2050.
