Multiaxial fabrics are developed for the automotive sector in particular, setting standards for lightweight construction innovations. Their use offers enormous advantages with the overriding aim of making vehicles even better. For many years now, the partnership between SAERTEX and FAURECIA has manifested itself in concrete projects and applications. FAURECIA relies on the quality of SAERTEX fiberglass fabrics and uses them for the production of car body components, among other things.
 
TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES

REINFORCING THE idea

Working with SAERTEX means a dynamic partnership that paves the way for progress. Through individual solutions such as our powder binding, the fabrics can be optimally adapted to the automated processes in the automotive sector.
 
SAERTEX acts not only as a supplier, but also as a strategic partner in product development. Our agile approach enables us to create customized solutions and drive innovation together with our customers. Together, we develop individual fabrics and provide support in material selection with draping and impregnation tests as well as mechanical tests.
 
"The main advantage we see in working with SAERTEX is the availability of a broad product portfolio. This enables us to test different materials and their mechanical properties in advance so that we can drive innovation forward quickly."  - Erwan Tessier, Engineering Manager Faurecia Clean Mobility - Lightweight Solutions
