HEERO and SGL Carbon: Innovations from Germany conquer the USA!
Celebrate with us! Our groundbreaking innovations in battery enclosures for electric vehicles are now also receiving recognition in the USA.
The topic briefly and concisely
Development partnership HEERO x SGL
More security with less weight
Article in the trade magazine "Plastics Today"
The renowned specialist publisher Plastics Today has recently published an article about our successful collaboration with SGL Carbon, the world's leading company for fiber-reinforced components.
Lighter, safer, more efficient: The advantages of our GFRP battery housings
The article details the outstanding characteristics of our newly developed battery housings made of fiberglass reinforced plastic (GFRP). Compared to conventional battery housings made of aluminum or steel, our GFRP housings offer several significant advantages:
Weight savings: GFRP is significantly lighter than metal, which can greatly improve the range and overall efficiency of electric vehicles.
Improved battery insulation: GFRP conducts heat much less than metal, protecting the battery cells from extreme temperatures and extending their lifespan.
Increased fire protection: GFRP is self-extinguishing and thus provides excellent protection against fires in the event of an accident.
Strong partnership for forward-looking solutions
The collaboration with SGL Carbon, a company with decades of experience in the development and manufacturing of fiber-reinforced components, was crucial for the success of this project. Together, we have created an innovative and sustainable product that redefines the standards in the field of battery technology for electric vehicles.
Our innovations: Today in the USA, tomorrow all over the world
The article in Plastics Today is further evidence of the innovative strength of HEERO. We are proud to contribute to sustainable future mobility with our pioneering solutions. Our GFRP battery housings are an important step in the right direction and will soon be used in our HEEROs.
