Automotive
Adhesive tapes are essential at various stages of automotive manufacturing. They offer numerous reliable and practical solutions.
In response to strict safety and environmental standards, our range of technical adhesive tapes continues to evolve, fostering product innovation.
Here are the main applications of adhesive tapes in the automotive industry :
- Surface Protection
Protection films are essential for safeguarding painted surfaces, windows, and headlights during production, assembly, and transportation. They provide effective protection during machining from paint splashes, as well as from scratches and dust. Masking tapes are also indispensable tools during the painting process. They are resistant to high temperatures while ensuring residue-free removal after production.
- Body Panel Assembly
Adhesive tapes are used to secure body panels, particularly during the assembly of lightweight materials such as aluminum and composites. They help reduce the use of screws and welds, thereby limiting the vehicle’s weight and improving energy efficiency.
- Assembly of Parts and Accessories
Adhesive tapes are highly effective for the final assembly of various car components such as door panels, roof rails, windows, mirrors, spoilers, and interior accessories like headrests, fabric or leather seat covers, pedals, and dashboards. They must meet specific standards, particularly regarding environmental requirements.
- Insulation and Soundproofing
Adhesive tapes are used to seal the joints between different body parts to prevent water and air infiltration. Insulating adhesives are also employed to bundle cable harnesses in a durable and secure manner, while minimizing VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions inside the vehicle cabin. Additionally, they are used to assemble soundproofing or vibration-dampening materials, improving passenger acoustic comfort and reducing mechanical noise. Technical adhesive tapes also ensure the assembly and insulation of batteries to dissipate heat and guarantee complete safety.
