Greenpoint Awarded Boeing 787 Floor Structure Patent

February 16, 2018 By Aircraft-Completion.com

Greenpoint Technologies, part of the Zodiac Group of Companies has received a patent for its Boeing 787 floor structure system design.

The aircraft offers completion centers multiple challenges with the Boeing 787 composite fuselage – with new engineering solutions for completion centers required.

The flooring system patent features include a floor panel, two seat tracks and an intercostal that bridges between and attaches to the seat tracks for the 787.

The intercostal protrudes through the floor panel, providing attachment locations that can be customized for aircraft monuments and furnishings.

Greenpoint’s patented floor system design is utilized on all Greenpoint 787 interior completions.

Bret Neely, executive vice president at Greenpoint:

“The 787 floor system patent represents Greenpoint engineering’s ingenuity in coming up with a solution to improve the installation process by standardizing modifications to the 787’s unique floor structure, minimizing parts and reducing installation time. The robust flooring system supports custom interior configurations required by VIP clients.”

The patent represents Greenpoints fifth approved patent.
