I want to talk to a SALES MANAGER I want to talk to a TECHNICAL EXPERT Overview Exterior Interior Under the Bonnet Creative innovation from lightweight solutions to surface aesthetics Sustainability plays an increasingly significant role in automotive manufacturing. Key drivers of sustainability in the industry include lightweight solutions: both the replacement of metal parts with energy efficient and lighter weight plastics as well as down gauging lead to improved fuel economy and lower CO2 emissions. Replacement solutions, however, must offer comparable or even superior mechanical performance, and must fulfil the most sophisticated aesthetic, haptic and even olfactory demands of today's end users. I want to talk to a SALES MANAGER I want to talk to a TECHNICAL EXPERT DOWNLOADS Subcategories Optimised performance and surface aesthetics Borealis offers a comprehensive range of innovative polypropylene (PP) and thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) solutions for automotive applications such as dashboards, door panels, centre consoles, trims, structural components and more. Our PP and TPO polymers and compounds have properties that are balanced and tailored to precisely match all your application needs. They deliver surfaces exhibiting: Non-stickiness Low gloss High scratch resistance Absence of flow marks (e.g. so-called "tiger stripes") Good haptics (pleasant to the touch) Odour-neutrality Based on our proprietary Borstar® technology, our materials solutions: Comply with the most stringent purity criteria, even in high melt flow rate (MFR) ranges Offer a very broad processing window Add value by helping to lower system costs while providing reliable performance to the highest global industry standards Enable faster development-to-production cycles Reduce both material and energy inputs for enhanced sustainability INNOVATION All-new carbon fibre reinforced PP solutions We have expanded our cutting-edge family of Fibremod™ polypropylene grades with three carbon fibre reinforced PP solutions. Visit borealisdrivingtomorrow.com Fibremod™ for lightweight and robust solutions For applications requiring an optimal stiffness/toughness balance, our Fibremod™ family of engineered short (SGF) and long glass fibre (LGF) compounds is the optimal solution. Their strength and durability makes them the ideal replacement for metals and engineered plastics, thus enabling significant vehicle weight savings and greater fuel economy without any compromises in mechanical properties. Moreover, they give reliable, corrosion-free performance throughout a vehicle's lifespan.
