We are at the forefront of innovative materials for seating applications, enabling the development of plastic seat pans, backrests, headrests, and many more components. Our new product offerings, including Durethan, Tepex, Udea, and Akulon, are designed to meet the evolving needs of the automotive industry.
These materials are lightweight, offering customized interior design and flexibility while providing freedom of design and functional integration. By replacing metal components, they significantly reduce overall weight, contributing to enhanced vehicle efficiency and performance. Envalior's solutions also feature a low Product Carbon Footprint (PCF), aligning with sustainability goals. Our proven track record with high-performance materials ensures reliable and advanced seating solutions for modern vehicles.
Durethan® is the trade name for our range of engineering thermoplastics based on polyamide 6 and polyamide 66. These polyamides are partially crystalline thermoplastics which offer an ideal combination of properties, especially for technical applications. They provide high mechanical strength and stiffness, good dielectric properties, high resistance to both heat and chemical attack, and good friction and wear properties.
Akulon® is our family of high performance polyamide 6 and polyamide 66 materials, used by customers across the world in applications ranging from automotive, electronics & electrical, to furniture and packaging.
We offer Akulon® grades for injection molding, blow molding and extrusion (including barrier film, stock shapes, convoluted tubes, and mono and multi filament).
In molded parts the material offers an excellent balance of easy design and processing with outstanding mechanical properties over a wide temperature range and in diverse conditions. Meanwhile for extrusion the strength, resilience and easy processing of Akulon® sets the market standards.
