Products for the automotive industry

Safer and more economical yet better quality – that is the automotive industry’s vision of tomorrow's cars. To achieve that, it needs top-quality products and good teamwork at all stages in the production chain. For many years, Kuraray has been an efficient supplier to the automotive industry. We offer a wide range of solutions and expert services.



SAFETY GLAZING

Windscreens and side windows produced with TROSIFOL® have exceptional safety, durability, noise reducing and UV protection properties. 

 

INSTRUMENT PANELS

The quality and attractiveness of the interior trim is also becoming more important. Our Septon® and Hybrar® elastomers offer endless possibilities of upgrading instrument panels and controls. Elastomers from Kuraray are the ideal solution when rubber reaches its limitations. 

 

SEATS

Our high-tech amaretta™ fibre is an alternative to leather. It has a classy appearance, feels pleasant to touch and is breathable and easy-care, so it goes on looking good for years.

 

PAINTWORK

First impressions count so the quality and workmanship of the car exterior is extremely important. Our Mowiol® and Kuraray Poval® polyvinyl alcohols are used to produce high-quality protective finishes and strippable coatings. And our Mowital® and Pioloform® polyvinyl butyral resins provide a reliable adhesive basis for stoving finishes. As primers, they protect against rust.

 

ENGINES AND FUEL TANKS

Products from Kuraray enhance the lifecycle and safety of vehicles. Our offering includes activated carbon filters for air-conditioning systems, technical fibres for hoses and multi-layer fuel tanks made from EVAL® plastics.

 

TYRES

LIR/LBR are high-viscosity polymer rubbers based on isoprene and butadiene. They are used in the rubber industry as reactive plasticisers. Benefits compared with conventional plasticisers include increasing the service life of tyres.
