SPE Automotive Award ceremony
Winner of the SPE Automotive Awards 2022 – Hybrid brake disc protection with CONEXUS technology wins in the “Body Exterior” category
_Innovative joining technology for the material-locking connection of thermosets with thermoplastics
_Greater sustainability through use of natural fibers and bio-based polyamides
_Improved recycling properties
These points enabled the component to prevail over strong competitors at Automotive Night, organized by the Society of Plastics Engineers, and win first place in the “Body Exterior” category.
A top-class jury composed of experts from all areas of plastics technology, the trade press and the automotive industry carried out the evaluation. This reflects the high value of this award in the industry.
CONEXUS technology enables a wide range of innovations and can score points in many different areas. So for example, ultrasonic welding for future urban air mobility has been made possible with the help of this technology. Together with the Composite Technology Center we create cross-sector opportunities for new mobility solutions.
