In the fast-moving automotive industry, nothing matters more than a manufacturer who really cares that they get it right. Whether it's lightweight airbag components or flame, oil and water repellent fabrics, we're responding to our automotive customers' tough problems with innovative solutions they know they can depend on.
When creating complex shaped components for vehicle interiors, our fabrics critically follow the contour of the mould without rupturing.
Low-air permeable, lightweight fabrics for superior acoustics.
Our fabrics have the benefit of being light and flexible enough to be folded into a very small space, ideal for the construction of airbags. More importantly our fabric is a unique lining component, which prevents the bag from sticking to itself and hindering inflation.
With an increasingly large array of colours available for the interior of cars, it is becoming more and more important for the Nonwoven liner to remain undetectable. Hence the liner is generally, although not exclusively, dyed charcoal to prevent colour strike through.
In engine bay applications, such as acoustic pads or heat shields, it is vital that the fabric not only repels oil and water, but is also resistant to fire. All these features can be engineered into our Nonwoven fabric.
During the lamination of acoustic components, the fusing system can be engineered to match components with other specific needs such as flame retardancy.
We offer a full customisation service. So if you don't see what you want here, just get in touch and we'll work with you to develop the perfect solution.
