Applications in automotive seating

Materials for seat foaming processes
Seat foam used for automotive cushioning is subjected to constant stress. Our high-performance nonwovens enhance the behavior of this foam in seat cushions. These materials improve seating comfort, ensure shape stability, and contribute to the durability of the seat. Additionally, they enhance the processability of the foam.
Carrier materials for seat heaters
Seat heaters enhance passenger comfort in cold temperatures. Our nonwovens are ideal base materials for this application, as they are specifically designed to support heating components. These materials are extremely durable and provide the foundation for temperature comfort in seats. Additionally, they offer excellent air permeability, ensuring even heat distribution and a comfortable seating climate.


FilFlex seat cover padding materials
FilFlex is a soft, flexible padding layer made from nonwovens, designed for automotive seat covers. The material minimizes leather creasing and enhances the dimensional stability of the covers. With its 100% PET composition, FilFlex is fully recyclable, and therefore makes a contribution to sustainability. It also simplifies handling during sewing and seat covering processes. End users benefit from exceptional seating comfort.
Additional features of FiIFlex:
- Padding made from composite or mono-material
- Provides soft and flexible cushioning
- Prevents creasing in leather and textile trims
- Enhances the dimensional stability of the seat cover
