Singapore Airlines upcycles leather from old Business Class seats

Singapore Airlines has breathed new life into the carrier’s retired Business Class seats - with its Upcycling Project collection - in partnership with Singapore-based leather and paper gift craftsman Bynd Artisan.

The airline reflects its image of prestige and luxury with four luxurious lifestyle products in a collection presented to celebrate travel and homecoming. Each piece of seat leather has travelled the world, collected stories from far and wide, and now upscaled, can begin a new journey.
