EPP Foam Custom-made Automotive Components Structure Parts

EPP Automotive Parts

For more than 20 years, the main use of expanded polypropylene has been in the automotive industry, which consumes around 80 percent of the particle foam used in Europe. There are several really good reasons for this long-term use of EPP in the automotive sector: thanks to its high lightweight engineering potential, such as for use in rear seat benches or wheel arches, it effectively reduces vehicle weight. An extremely eco-friendly implication of this: less fuel consumption, lower emissions! And EPP offers a further advantage in terms of sustainability – the polymer foam can be recycled optimally. EPP is convincing both in terms of static and dynamic load thanks to outstanding energy absorption and impressive resilience – an excellent basis for safety-related components in vehicle construction.
