Achieving lightweight automotive parts with Scope3-compliant biomass composite materials.
In the automotive industry, reducing weight of components is a crucial challenge for improving fuel efficiency and minimizing environmental impact. In particular, lightweighting of the body and interior parts is essential for reducing the overall weight of the vehicle and enhancing fuel efficiency. Conventional petroleum-based resins can hinder weight reduction. The Selbride® design grade is a WPC (wood plastic composite) with a high content of wood flour, which not only offers lightweight properties and environmental considerations but also allows for unique design expressions characteristic of wood flour. 【Application Scenarios】 - Automotive interior parts (door trims, instrument panels, etc.) - Exterior parts (grilles, etc.) - Other components where weight reduction is required 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Improved fuel efficiency through lightweighting of components - Reduction of CO2 emissions through Scope 3 compliance - Increased added value through wood-based design features
