HEERO and SGL Carbon: Innovations from Germany are conquering the USA!

Lighter, safer, more efficient: The benefits of our GFRP battery housings

The article describes in detail the outstanding features of our newly developed battery housings made of glass-reinforced plastic (GFRP). Compared to conventional battery housings made of aluminum or steel, our GFRP housings offer several decisive advantages:

• Weight savings: GFRP is significantly lighter than metal, which can significantly improve the range and overall efficiency of electric vehicles.
• Improved battery insulation: GFRP conducts heat significantly less than metal, which protects battery cells from extreme temperatures and extends their lifespan.
• Increased fire protection: GFRP is self-extinguishing and therefore offers excellent protection against fires in the event of an accident.

Strong partnership for pioneering solutions

The collaboration with SGL Carbon, a company with decades of experience in the development and manufacture of fiber reinforcement components, was decisive for the success of this project. Together, we have created an innovative and sustainable product that redefines standards in the area of battery technology for electric vehicles.
