Replin on the Road: Strengthening our North American Customer and Prospect Relationships

27th August 2026

During late July and early August, our International Sales Manager Tom Anderton travelled across the US and Canada for an intensive customer and prospect programme, visiting Montreal, Seattle, Huntington Beach, Los Angeles, Fort Worth and Atlanta.

The trip provided an excellent opportunity for Tom to meet with both existing customers and prospective new partners, as well as present the full Replin aviation fabrics portfolio including upcoming developments to the range. Tom also shared details of an exciting new product currently in development, while gaining valuable insight into customers’ upcoming programmes and evolving requirements.

“Replin was extremely well received by both prospects and existing customers throughout the visit. It was a great opportunity to present our full range and discuss our exciting new product development ahead of AIX 2027. Importantly, it was a chance to understand more about the programmes our customers are working on and what they need from Replin.

“I’m particularly pleased that, just a few weeks after returning to the UK, we have already received a significant order from one of our customers based in California. This is a great example of the value in meeting customers face-to-face.”

The trip also provided an opportunity to reconnect with industry contacts and explore new opportunities for collaboration. Tom met with Juergen Jerome from Aero-Dienst, a former customer from his previous role at Bostonair, as well as Nathan and Edgar from Aerofoam Industries.

“It was fantastic to catch up with Juergen again, as well as Nathan and Edgar from Aerofoam Industries. Building strong relationships within the aviation interiors industry is hugely important to us, and I enjoyed exchanging ideas and exploring how we can work together going forward.”

Replin returns to North America in October

Plans are already underway for a further trip to North America towards the end of October 2026. The itinerary is currently expected to include Calgary, Seattle, Las Vegas, Winston-Salem and Atlanta.
