Impact Protection

Safety is the first concern of all.

ARPRO® EPP manages impact energy by absorbing it, then returning to shape. It is ideal for multiple impact protection such as in bumpers and pedestrian safety applications, and is widely used in automotive interior parts to help improve passenger safety.

	Side impact protection JSP engineers help auto makers and system suppliers create unique shapes that fit in doors to enhance crash protection. These components also help enhance thermal and acoustical performance, and contribute to overall mass reduction.
	Knee protection Knee protection components made from ARPRO® help reduce injuries to both driver and front seat passenger, complementing other safety devices such as seat belts and air bags.
	A, B, C pillars Pillars made from ARPRO® can be laminated with appropriate TPO or other coverings. ARPRO® helps make pillars less of an impact hazard in crash conditions.
	Instrument panel components ARPRO® components can be moulded to secure wire harnesses, ducting, electronics and other IP systems. ARPRO® is 100% recyclable, and contributes to the goal of a mono-material auto interior.
	Door panels ARPRO® can help dramatically reduce the number of parts in the door system. Door trim panels can be laminated with TPO for a Class A surface. Inside the door, ARPRO® parts provide side impact protection, housing for mechanisms, acoustical and thermal insulation.
	Headrests ARPRO® makes an ideal material for headrests, where the combination of structural strength, lightweight and energy absorption are critical requirements.
	Sun visors ARPRO® Small Beads allows greater shape and styling precision, the inclusion of inserts for rapid assembly and finishing, and produces a rigid yet lightweight component to house the electronic systems being incorporated within them.
