Methodology

How the estimates were built: data sources, modelling approach and validation steps.

Research approach

A market size is a claim about the world, and a claim is only as good as the route to it. Every study is built upward from units and prices — what is actually produced, sold or performed, at what it actually changes hands for — rather than from a headline figure divided downwards. Disclosed company revenue is then used to check that build, not to produce it.

Market size estimation, this report

The size of this market was built upward from aircraft delivery volumes by type, narrow body, wide body, very large body and private jet, multiplied by the average number and mix of electrical inserts fitted per galley configuration and the realized average selling price for each insert category. Retrofit volume was added separately, based on the age profile of the in-service fleet and typical cabin refurbishment intervals. That bottom-up build was then checked against disclosed cabin-interiors and aerostructures segment revenue reported by named suppliers such as Safran and Diehl. Where the two diverged, the bottom-up fitment-rate or price assumption was corrected; the disclosed company figures were treated as fixed.

The four stages

The same sequence runs behind every published study, whatever the industry. The order matters as much as the steps: the segment axes are fixed before any number is collected, so the model is never reshaped to fit whatever data happens to turn up.

What the build rests on, and what checks it

The two are not interchangeable. The left column produces the number; the right column tests it. When the check disagrees with the build, the answer is to find which bottom-up assumption is wrong — a unit count, a price, a take-up rate — not to split the difference between them.

The bottom-up build rests on
  • Volume actually transacted — units produced, installed, dispensed or procedures performed, counted at the level each is genuinely recorded
  • Realised pricing by tier and channel, rather than one blended average applied across the whole market
  • Take-up and frequency: how much of the addressable base buys, and how often it repeats
The build is checked against
  • Disclosed revenue of the companies serving the market, where filings separate it far enough to be usable
  • Buyer-side spending totals — capital budgets, procurement lines, or the output of the end market the product is bought against
  • Trade and customs flows, where the product crosses borders in a separately recorded form

Data sources

Published data establishes what happened. Only the people transacting in a market can say why, and what is about to change — so the two are collected separately and weighted differently.

Primary — who is interviewed
  • Commercial and product leadership at the companies that supply the market
  • Procurement and specification leads at the organisations that buy it
  • Distributors, integrators and channel partners, where the market is served indirectly
  • Regulatory and standards specialists, where approval governs what can be sold at all
Secondary — what is read
  • Company filings, annual reports and investor disclosure
  • Government statistics, customs records and regulatory registers
  • Trade association output and standards-body publications
  • Technical and peer-reviewed literature, where the market rests on a clinical or engineering claim
Primary research design, this report

Primary research for this market targets program managers and procurement leads at airframers and Tier 1 cabin interior integrators, fleet planning and cabin engineering staff at commercial and business aviation operators, and aftermarket and MRO buyers responsible for galley equipment replacement. These roles hold direct visibility into fitment specifications, retrofit budgets and supplier qualification decisions that public filings do not capture. Sampling emphasizes North America and Europe, where airframe final assembly and Tier 1 supplier headquarters concentrate, with a growing share of coverage directed to Asia Pacific as regional carriers expand fleets and as galley equipment sourcing shifts toward suppliers serving that region directly.

Secondary sources, this report

Desk research draws on FAA and EASA type-certificate data sheets and supplemental type-certificate filings covering galley equipment installations, ICAO and IATA fleet and traffic statistics, and customs trade data filed under HS code 8803 for aircraft parts and equipment. Airframer delivery and order backlog reports published by Boeing and Airbus anchor the aircraft-volume side of the build, while segment and annual filings from named suppliers, including Safran, Diehl and Bucher, provide the revenue benchmarks used in the bottom-up check. Aerospace trade-body benchmarks on cabin retrofit cycle timing supplement the fitment-rate assumptions.

Desk research runs across proprietary research databases including Factiva, OneSource and Hoovers alongside the public sources above. Modelling and statistical validation are run in SAS and SPSS.

Forecasting

The forecast is not a growth rate applied to a base year. It is built from the drivers that are expected to change, each one stated so a reader can disagree with it.

Forecast approach, this report

The forecast is built from published aircraft delivery schedules by type through the forecast period, the pace at which deferred COVID-era deliveries clear the existing order backlog, and the retrofit cycle timing that governs when an aircraft's galley inserts are next replaced or upgraded. Insert average selling price trends, including the shift toward higher power-rated units, are carried forward at the rate observed across the historical series. The forecast assumes airframe production rates continue to recover toward pre-2020 levels without a further systemic disruption to the aerospace supply chain, and that cabin retrofit spending is not deferred by airline capital constraints.

Triangulation and validation

No figure enters a report on the strength of one source. Where the two sizing routes disagree the difference is not averaged away — the assumption causing it is isolated, tested against a third independent measure, and either corrected or carried forward as a stated limitation. Historical years are back-tested against the growth actually recorded before any forecast is allowed to run forward from them.

Validation, this report

Outputs were back-tested against recorded 2020 to 2024 growth to confirm the build reproduces the historical recovery pattern and not only the forecast years. Segment share shifts, including the move toward higher power-rated inserts and toward wide body and private jet aircraft, were reviewed against expert judgment on cabin retrofit and fleet-mix trends. Sensitivity was tested on the two variables with the greatest effect on the outcome: the pace of aircraft delivery recovery and the timing of cabin retrofit cycles, since a delay in either directly compresses the forecast without changing the underlying demand case.

Confidence and limitations

Where an estimate is firm and where it is not is stated rather than left to be inferred from the precision of the number.

Confidence framing, this report

Confidence is firmest for the narrow body and OE-driven segments, where aircraft delivery schedules are published and fitment rates are consistent across programs. It is softer for private jet and aftermarket retrofit timing, where reporting is less standardized and retrofit decisions are made case by case by individual operators. The main structural risk to this estimate is a renewed disruption to aircraft delivery schedules, whether from supply chain constraints or certification delays, which would push both OE and retrofit-driven demand later than assumed here without reducing the underlying market.
