The automotive interior applications are also going ‘green’. This is revealed by one of the world’s leading automotive interior suppliers — Lear Corporation — which has designed a flexible foam material made from soybean oil! Named, SoyFoam™, it is developed for automotive interior applications.
SoyFoam™ is an environment-friendly application, as this soy-based foam material is renewable up to 24% compared to its traditional counterpart – the non-renewable petroleum-based foam!
This new, eco-friendly automotive interior application reduces not only dependency on volatile energy markets, but also offers the potential needed to reduce the cost of foam.
