Today’s focus

Materials by priority fields for provision of value

S-SBR (tires)Synthetic rubber, elastomers (vibration isolation, interior, etc.)

Engineering plastics (lightweighting)

Leona nylon 66 filament (airbags, tire cord)

Lamous artificial suede (seats, interior)

Sage Automotive Interiors, Inc.

SunForce m-PPE foamed beads (condensation prevention for EV)

Main products and overview of basic strategy

Materials Processing/forming Sale

Performance polymersPolymers ⇒ Compounding ⇒ Sale

Fibers, air bagYarn ⇒ Weaving/sewing ⇒ Sale

CAE*

Mobility
