Advantages of EPP automotive structural parts:
Expanded Polypropylene is the preferred material that our OEM and Tier 1 customers choose for in-boot tool and spare wheel accessory kits as well as battery covers and other car elements. They are both durable and at the same time lightweight and can be designed with resistance fitting to hold tools securely in car luggage compartment. Furthermore, Knauf Industries trunk compartment storage elements moulded in EPP can include inserts for attachment and be finished with special textures to gain a more aesthetic appeal.
EPP in automotive application:
- Side Impact Protection
- -- Expanded foam components are located in the door frames and arm rest areas to counter-balance the side impact forces.
- -- Expanded high density polypropylene foam is sandwitched between the metal and plastic central reservation of the seat belt mechanism to provide hip protection Head Impact Protection
- -- High density polypropylene pads clipped beneath the roof lining offers head impact protectionFront Impact Protection-- Expanded polypropylene bumper cores. -- Expanded polypropylene low density foot-well in-fill pieces located under the carpet to support the heel.
- -- Expanded polypropylene foot-well parts act as footrests.
- -- Expanded polypropylene pads supplied taped for fixing to the steering cowl assemble for knee impact protection.
- -- Expanded heat resistant co-polymer foam pad fixed to the passenger air bag door protects during deployment. Interiors Under Carpet/Floor Levelling Systems
- -- Floor levelling systems alow the same platform to be used for many different car variants. Produced in expanded polypropylene these low weight mouldings also offer acoustic protection and are manufactured to incorporate airflow and wire channels.
- -- Expanded polypropylene shapes are used to level floor areas and fill voids.
- Seating
- -- Expanded polypropylene lumber cores in seats.
- -- Expanded polypropylene arm rest cores.
- ar Boot
- -- Car boot levelling.
- -- Integrated Tool Tray with spare wheel cover
- -tools.
- -- Infill spacers.
- -- CD player holders (including banking plugs).
- -- Wet stowage trays.
- -- Plastic liners and leather look finishes available.
