The automotive market is experiencing disruptive trends through autonomous driving and e-mobility. OEMs and suppliers have to adapt by introducing new materials and new processes. Welding is increasingly being replaced by adhesives and there will be a focus on lightweight materials (Al, Mg, plastics, hybrids) when it comes to substrates.
Sustainability through environmentally friendly processes and chemicals is becoming increasingly relevant and is linked to local and regional regulations. At the same time, the industry is faced with the challenge of reducing its overall environmental impact by reducing carbon dioxide emissions and CO2 emissions. In addition to the competitive environment of providing e-mobility solutions to customers without exorbitant costs, OEMs are constantly pushing for better quality and productivity. As an OEM direct supplier, Chemetall can leverage its extensive network of experts and comprehensive technology portfolio to help you proactively meet these challenges.
