Presentation

Development of sustainable automotive interior components

CO2-savings and conserving resources during production and use are now important aspects in the manufacture of interior components. As there are different ways to implement these requirements for interior parts, this presentation will take a closer look at possible weight savings, process optimization and the selection of suitable materials like natural fibers or recycled plastics.
