Rubber manufacturers to the fore in enabling the automotive industry to enhance the safety, performance and sustainability of vehicles
Automotive industry demand for new safety technologies, particularly in the battery compartments of electric vehicles (EVs), is driving innovation and business strategies among rubber component and systems manufacturers.
At the forefront of this trend, Freudenberg Sealing Technologies (FST) is ramping up production of its pressure compensation elements, designed to enhance the safety of EVs – a move in response to substantial new orders for its DIAvent HighFlow elements.
FST started developing the DIAvent range in 2017 to provide intelligent pressure compensation elements that merge pressure-equalisation and emergency degassing into a single unit.
The range extends from basic light-ventilation to ‘high-flow’ elements that integrate bi-directional pressure-compensation with emergency degassing into just one component.
