Plastic Omnium : presents its latest innovations at NAIAS Detroit Auto Show for a safe and sustainable mobility.

Lighter vehicles

Making vehicles lighter reduces their CO2 emissions, Plastic Omnium 'lightweights' its exterior products while offering excellent mechanical performance and robustness. Reducing components weight is all the more vital for hybrid and electric vehicles as it increases their driving range and compensates for the battery weight.

Plastic Omnium's expert engineers also offer automakers solutions to optimize passive and active aerodynamics, further reducing CO2 emissions.

The energy mix revolution

Plastic Omnium is the leader in energy storage and fuel systems, whether for standard gasoline, diesel vehicles and hybrids. Continuous improvement programs are active and cover all storage systems needs. Plastic Omnium is also working on alternative energy solutions such as hydrogen storage, fuel cells and supercapacitors. Plastic Omnium recently acquired two companies operating in the field of propulsion by hydrogen fuel cells: Swiss Hydrogen and Optimum CPV. These acquisitions reinforce the positioning of Plastic Omnium as an electric propulsion player.

More connected than ever

The market for connected cars is on the increase. Plastic Omnium's development strategy is staying ahead of market changes.

Plastic Omnium is contributing to tomorrow's intelligent car thanks to its expertise in function integration, backed by the outstanding electromagnetic transparency performance of plastics. The company's exterior components will incorporate and protect a large number of radars, lidars and other sensors that will offer even greater styling flexibility on top of connectivity protective features.
