Using Pressure-Sensitive Tapes to Meet the Evolving Needs of the Automotive Industry
Pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes offer functionality, versatility, and customization as the automotive industry produces more EVs and increases the integration of electronic systems into vehicles.
Anyone who has been shopping for a new vehicle recently has seen evidence of how the auto industry is evolving and the direction it is going. The two major trends influencing auto design and manufacturing at all levels of the supply chain fall under the classification of electrification. The first involves the continuing integration of electronic systems into vehicles, particularly advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) such as guided cruise control and parking assist systems. The second is the shift by virtually every manufacturer to electric vehicles (EV).
Both trends create opportunities for pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes (PSATs). PSATs offer the functionality, versatility, and customization to address a wide range of challenges OEMs and their suppliers face while navigating the changes occurring in the industry.
