Next up to be profiled as part of our #WomeninAutomotive series is Beibei Sun, one of our Managing Consultants & Programme Managers specialising in manufacturing & operations. Beibei shared her thoughts on how consulting can support clients in a time of rapid change. “We’re seeing a significant step change in the pace in which our clients work as they race to achieve net zero targets and lower emissions across the globe. This means thinking innovatively, identifying USPs and making them into real and tangible products. We work with clients to help them shape their manufacturing and operational landscape that not only helps them achieve speed-to-market, but in a way that is sustainable for their business and the environment.” #AutomotiveIndustry #FemaleTalent #AutomotiveManufacturing

November 17th, 2023, I would like to share a great experience at FAAS -Forum on Automotive Aftermarket Sustainability Day event by Autopromotec in BolognaFiere Group. Thanks to Mr. Hans Kröder's opening speech, I had an opportunity to reconsider the most interesting challenges in contemporary business. Interestingly, the key point in manufacturing when considering cost benefits, not only in the automotive industry but also in other industries, is the importance of production and distribution. However, We need to prioritize innovation and put all our efforts into restoring clean production and conditions and creating different values creation to achieve environmental challenges as SDGs goals of the United Nations. In other words, we can predict an increase in demand for advanced machines with features such as high traceability in manufacturing and remanufacturing. INDACO PROJECT Srl #rosk #psm #remanufacturing

Aspen Aerogel invests 270 M dollars in opening two manufacturing plants in Apodaca (Nuevo León – Monterrey). U.S. company Aspen Aerogels, which assembles electric car batteries, has opened a two plant manufacturing complex in Apodaca. The 270 million dollars investment project contributes to the positioning of the state as an electromobility hub and the creation of a thousand new jobs. The two Aspen Aerogels plants are located in the municipality of Apodaca and were promoted by its strategic partner Prodensa. The first plant begins the conversion process of the aerogel rolls and the second plant is where the assembly of the final product will be completed, which is an encapsulation of the aerogel that they send to their clients. Among the company’s main clients are General Motors, Toyota, Audi, Scania, Stellantis-ACC and Magna. #AspenAerogel #AutomotiveIndustry #NuevoLeon #Tesla #AutomotiveIndustry #ElonMusk #Industry #FDI #Cintermex #Monterrey #Texas #TradeShows #Nearshoring #Packaging #Foodservice #Cleaning #Medical #Pharma #ForeignDirectInvestment #Manufacturing #EV #ElectricVehicles #Mexico

Process optimization secures short delivery times at ISOPLUS With the continued boom in the district energy sector, the growing quality requirements and a lack of skilled workers, ISOPLUS in Germany has taken an innovative step, and established a robot cell with two welding robots in cooperation with Heller Maschinen & Technologie. The large state-of-the-art system, that was commissioned in the summer of 2023, can process pipe bends weighing up to a ton, base pipes in dimensions from DN300 to DN1000 and material thicknesses up to 17.5 mm. Apart from enhanced quality and easing of workload on the employees, ISOPLUS can shorten the throughput time for each order significantly with this new unique system where the retooling to a different pipe dimension is done more or less at the push of a button. With this new initiative, we have once again manifested ourselves as one of the market’s leading suppliers, where you can rely on supply security and quality. #ISOPLUS #processoptimization #quality

To achieve our industry leading 100% sustainability by 2050, Hankook need to replace around 65% of the materials we are using in our tyres today. We need to pass four tests with each replacement material : 1, It must be 100% sustainable 2, It must deliver the same or better tyre performance - we cannot compromise on tyre performance. 3, It must be available in sufficient volumes for the production needs of Hankook 4, It must be economically viable We are working hard with our materials science teams and the ISCC (See below) to deliver on our Sustainability and Carbon neutrality targets. The International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) is an independent multi-stakeholder initiative and leading certification system supporting sustainable, fully traceable, deforestation-free and climate-friendly supply chains. #hankook #ISCC
Hankook Tire recently participated in the Global Eco-Friendly Materials International Certification Conference hosted by ISCC PLUS. We shared insights into our eco-friendly management strategies and efforts to reduce carbon emissions. Additionally, we highlighted our iON brand's electric vehicle tires, demonstrating our commitment to eco-friendly innovation. We greatly value your ongoing support and interest in Hankook Tire's sustainability efforts. #Hankooktire #DrivingEmotion #Hankook #iON #sustainable_collaboration #ISCC #ISCC_PLUS #conference #EVtire #EV #Tire #HankookiON

This year’s CLEPA Innovation Awards was a bit special to us 🏅 Because not one, but three of our technologies received an award from the CLEPA - European Association of Automotive Suppliers! Congratulations to our teams who worked on these outstanding technologies! 👉 Those from HELLA Gutmann Solutions, who succeeded in automating one of the most common activities in automotive workshops: fault diagnostic. As a result, it can increase the overall efficiency of vehicle repairs. 👉 Those from MATERI'ACT who have worked hard over the years to develop the NAFILean family. The latest addition, NAFILean-R, combines a 20% natural hemp fibers content with a low-CO2 polypropylene matrix that is 70% recycled. 👉 And finally our teams working on hydrogen storage solutions who have designed the XL Tank which can store over 20kg of gaseous hydrogen under 700bars pressure. Which means more autonomy and less recharging time for long distance truck drivers! #FORVIA #sustainablemobility
