Top performance in series.
As an automotive specialist, we combine sustainability and performance. Our innovative strength is based on sound expertise and state-of-the-art infrastructure. This allows us to set new standards for circular automotive solutions:
- Materials expertise
- Inhouse laboratory infrastructure
- Closed material loops
- CO₂e reduction of up to 80%
- Solutions for the planned ELV requirements
- We are the first company to bring PCR into the vehicle interior
- .
With the SAM holder, we combine functionality and sustainability in one component. Thanks to the MuCell® foaming process and recycled plastic, we were able to significantly reduce the weight - an advantage for the fuel consumption and range of electric vehicles. In addition, the holder function was combined with the footrest, eliminating the need for components. The result: maximum conservation of resources while maintaining the same level of stability.

Washing cap
CO2e-Footprint:
-77%
Material:
PIR and PCR
Our wash caps follow a closed material cycle system - from production to use to recycling. By using PIR and PCR, we reduce component density and locking force in injection molding. This means noticeably lower CO₂ emissions with optimum functionality. Eco-design makes sustainability visible and measurable.
END-OF-LIVE VEHICLE MATERIAL

CO2e-Footprint:
-71%
Material:
Altauto material
Our top console is made entirely from recycled plastic from end-of-life vehicles - a real contribution to the circular economy. With 71% less CO₂e compared to new products, we are sending a strong signal for climate protection. At the same time, the console already meets the planned EU requirements for end-of-life vehicles. Sustainability meets future-proofing.
PCR USE
Holder sound generator
CO2e-Footprint:
-46%
Material:
PCR
What used to be packaging is now precision automotive components. By using PCR material, we reduce CO₂ emissions by 46% compared to virgin material. Thanks to precise material analyses, tailor-made recipes and strict quality controls, even sophisticated components such as sound generator holders meet all technical standards - with a significantly better environmental footprint.
Metal substitution
ESP holder
CO2e-Footprint:

Technology:
Metal substitution
The ESP holder combines a robust design with significant environmental benefits. Over its entire service life, 7,229 tons of CO₂e are saved. Thanks to high-quality materials and precise design, the component meets the highest requirements in terms of performance and resilience. Our material expertise ensures that durability and sustainability go hand in hand.
PCR FOR VEHICLE INTERIOR

coming soon
For the first time, we are successfully using PCR in series production for interior components. This allows us to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions while meeting the strictest quality and safety standards. The materials are emission-safe and meet the highest requirements in terms of feel, appearance and durability. Circular performance is our claim – sustainability as the new standard in the interior.

What sets us apart from others:
Complete materials expertise under one roof. From the laboratory with the highest quality standards to in-house compounding for material preparation and innovative production technologies, we reduce resource consumption across the board. Years before the planned ELV, we are already supplying the sustainable automotive solutions of tomorrow in series production.
From the incoming goods inspection to the final release, no component leaves our company without a laboratory check.
Our in-house test laboratory is a unique selling point in the industry and the heart of our circular performance. We use state-of-the-art testing methods to precisely characterize recycled materials and create validated simulation data for the highest development quality. From leak tests to cleanliness analyses, our laboratory guarantees the highest quality and functionality.
- Incoming goods inspection: Complete material characterization of all recyclates
- Determination of characteristic values: Precise simulation with own, validated material data
- Quality assurance: 100% testing of critical parameters before series release
Materials expertise meets process competence – a strong competitive advantage
We combine in-depth knowledge of materials with state-of-the-art manufacturing processes. From classic injection molding and innovative foaming technologies to thermoforming and organic sheet processing - our expertise lies in the perfect match between material and manufacturing process. This combination enables us to provide optimal solutions for demanding automotive applications.
- Injection moulding with precise process parameter optimization for different material types
- Shaping process for weight reduction and material savings in series production
- Organo sheet processing for the highest strength requirements
- Insert molding and back injection molding for functional integration
From material specification to series production – everything starts with the right material development
Our own compounding facility with an annual capacity of 10,000 tons is the foundation for a genuine circular economy. With in-house material development and the legally compliant use of recyclates, we create tailor-made solutions.
Different recyclate sources and in-house expertise eliminate fluctuations in quality and ensure consistent delivery capability.
- Compounding: in-house production with an annual capacity of 10,000 tons – expansion to 15,000 tons by 2027
- PCR integration up to 100%
- Design for recycling: we plan for later recycling right from the design stage
- Material specification: Tailor-made formulations for specific customer requirements
From regulation to series production – legal certainty is our standard, not our promise
While the industry reacts to upcoming sustainability regulations, we are already one step ahead. With scientifically validated material qualification and established recyclate supply chains, we are already creating compliance for tomorrow's regulations. Our expertise in the legally compliant implementation of recycled materials makes us a strategic partner for future-oriented companies.
- Scientific validation: Comprehensive material testing according to international standards and norms
- Complete material qualification: In-house laboratory infrastructure for gapless documentation
- Established supply chains: Secure supply of recyclates
- Regulatory forward planning: Compliance strategies for future sustainability requirements
