Faurecia:
lnnovating every day for a better future
The transportation sector emits colossal amounts of carbon dioxide, one of
the main causes of climate warming. By focusing on Clean Mobility, Faurecia
is boosting its growth opportunities for innovative quality solutions for which
the Group is the world leader.
O
ur planet suffers from
the continuous pressure
of growing populations,
urbanization, ever-increasing
mobility, and mushrooming
production systems. The impacts of air quality on human
health are becoming more and
more evident. Alarm bells are
ringing, and the 195 COP21
countries across the world are
taking measures to curb the
six billions metric tons of CO2
linked to human activities like
transportation.
The automotive industry
needs to innovate seriously if
it is going to comply with the
new government regulations.
Europe has defined an average-emissions standard of 95
grams of CO2 per kilometer by
2020 to keep climate warming
below the ceiling of 2°C above
the preindustrial baseline temperature average.
One of the best ways to lower the transportation sector's
CO2 emission rate is to make
lighter vehicles: removing
12
10 kg of a vehicle's weight can
lower its CO2 emissions by a
gram per kilometer.
Focusing on Clean Mobility
for a better world
Well-aware of these issues,
Faurecia has long been involved
in a process to reduce the environmental footprint of vehicles
by working with materials that
weigh less than steel (e.g. aluminium, magnesium), including the use of composite materials reinforced with carbon
and/or natural fibres like flax
and hemp. We all want - and
are expecting - sustainable mo-
bility, and the Faurecia group's
aim is to become a major contributor to that very soon.
Therefore, Faurecia innovates
not only in material weight reduction for CO2 emission reduction, but also in energy recovery through the use of
devices to convert exhaust gas
heat directly into electricity.
By combining different materials and new technologies, it
will be possible to reduce CO2
emissions by up to 10%, making for a purer breathing air
and helping to meet the environmental expectations of
European citizens.

Anticipating new requirements in the automotive
industry
In terms of its size and operations, the Faurecia Group's
Composite
Technologies
Division (FCT) operates flexibly, innovatively and with agility, just like a startup. Its facilities are located in the superb
old harbour city of Saint Malo
in Brittany. In these authentic surroundings, the R&D
teams (which have significantly grown in size since 2016)
innovate to invent new products and technologies for specific market segments: sports
