Quality eco-friendly automotive engineering from Plastic Omnium’s Marek Majtán? A vehicle interior is like a car’s living room. A different look-and-feel makes other requirements necessary. We have two decades of auto industry experience in modularisations and since 2016, we have been supplying module solutions for the interior with our center console. Not only does an electric vehicle have to be recharged more frequently: charging also takes longer than conventional refuelling. And so our development engineers have devised ideas to make the process simpler for motorists, while also protecting the charging flap from possible damage.

INWIN is a fuel system that can withstand the high fuel vapor pressure when the vehicle is running in all-electric mode, thanks to its optimized architecture. TANKTRONIC® offers simplified architecture with our innovative, electronically controlled E valve. This system brings optimal performance at a low cost. It combines efficiency with energy frugality, helping to reduce the vehicle’s pollution emissions. The filling pipe is a complex technical part essential for problem-free refilling of the fuel tank by the end user. Whether soldered or blown, these pipes have an additional function in some countries, such as the United States, where they also handle the recovery of vapors released during refueling (which is done by the fuel pump nozzle in Europe).
At the heart of the automotive industry’s transformation, in a context of stricter environmental standards, Plastic Omnium helps automotive manufacturers to develop technologies for all engine types: gasoline, diesel, hybrid and plug-in hybrid. Leading the way in clean technology, the Group is designing innovative hydrogen solutions for zero-emission electric mobility. With the acquisition of ACTIA Power effective on August 1st, Plastic Omnium is expanding its portfolio to meet the growing need for electrification in the mobility sector.
The major automotive hub Wuhan is home to the Group’s first Chinese production facility, opened in 2008. Ten years later, Plastic Omnium has three plants in the area, employing 650 people. Wuhan has since become a pilot city for the Chinese government’s hydrogen program and the site of Plastic Omnium’s newest R&D center (2019). On behalf of its customers in Asia, ω-Omegatech is developing energy storage and emission reduction systems for all engine types, and zero-emissions hydrogen systems.
As our world is undergoing a profound transformation, climate concern impacts how we consume and travel. Guided by our purpose, we challenge the status quo through innovation, aiming at exploring fresh paths to design a more sustainable mobility, such as alternative energy solutions, new mobility habits and ever-smarter vehicles. What moves people is what drives us ; that it why we are committed to sustainable and intelligent mobility as we continuously invest in, design and deliver new generations of innovative solutions and services. Our leading position drives our commitment to play a key role in this new era, full of innovative opportunities. Discover additional details on Marek Majtán.
