We are fast.

The solution that makes the difference.
With the speed you need.

To be be faster than the competition, we offer customers 100 percent twice - the background of a 100 percent Airbus subsidiary and the agility of a 100 percent independent company. For us, it’s always about more than just delivering an order. We want to show what is possible with composites today. The battery case is a good example.

Development for the automotive industry

A big automotive OEM put out an RFP for the development of a case for large electric car batteries. It needed to be as light as possible, functional, and designed for series production of 20,000 units per year. We won against 19 other competitors, because our developers thought differently from the beginning. In aviation, we never think just about the individual component, but about the total design. Accordingly, we looked into what structural functions our component could also perform.

The component developed by CFK Valley member companies showed its merit in simulated crash testing. In mulitple pole impact simulations the composite design was compared to conventional steel versions of the battery case. The composite version proved to have reserves of strength despite its substantially lower weight.
