Automotive Products

The automotive industry designs, develops, markets and manufactures motor vehicles and is one of the most important economic sectors globally.

Motor vehicles must conform to new design, efficiency, safety and environmental laws and mandates globally, which require the application of new materials, design and technologies.

These demands have resulted in the introduction of new technologies such as robotics or collaborative robots, flexible production lines to adjust to market demand and an integrated ('Kaizen') approach to identifying and solving problems.

The global importance of the automobile manufacturing industry is evident in the numbers.

• Over 72.35 million cars passenger cars will be produced this year.
• It is estimated that over 1 billion passenger cars are operating globally today.
• The global card manufacturing industry is forecast to have a value of $904 billion.
• More than half of the cars are produced in Asia, Europe produces almost one third. One out of four cars produced in the world comes from China.
• The Alliance of Automobile Manufactures reports that one out of every 10 jobs in the US is dependent upon the automotive industry.
