Lightweight Design and Interior Concepts for OEMs & Partners

The present challenge for the production of automotive doors can be summed up in two keywords: lightweight design and customer comfort.

Improved steel doors, CFRP, magnesium and aluminium are already on the market – but which combination of materials will allow for a cost-efficient high volume production? At the same time, innovative door concepts and new materials allow to reinvent the interior and improve customer comfort.
