Innovative application of bio-based composites in automotive interior and exterior decoration

November 04, 2024
The automotive industry is promoting the transformation of the industry to a low-carbon and green direction through three core approaches: recycling, reducing the use of petroleum-based materials and technology empowerment. Many leading automotive manufacturers in the world have regarded the application of bio-based materials as an important measure for the development of low-carbon economy and the practice of ESG concept, which not only reflects the commitment of the whole factory to environmental protection and sustainable development, but also shows the active efforts of the automotive industry in seeking environmentally friendly alternative materials.
 
 
 
Ford Motor: Used discarded olive branches to make car foot pedals
 
 
 
After using simulation technology to assess the durability, strength and formability of olive trees, Ford Motor Europe began to create foot pedals for cars. Ford engineers molded foot pedals from a mixture of 40 percent olive fiber and 60 percent recycled polypropylene plastic.
 
Ford said that after testing, the foot pedal made of olive tree fiber is strong and durable, and can reduce the use of plastic in auto parts, avoid olive tree incineration and reduce air pollution.
 
 
 
In addition to olive fiber, Ford has previously used a variety of environmentally friendly materials for its auto parts manufacturing. Such as the industry's first soy foam plastic seats and headrests.
