Materials that Meet the Demands of Modern Automotive & Transportation

Driving e-Mobility with High-Performance Polymer Compounds.

At the heart of vehicle manufacturing — from cars, trucks, and buses to trains, ships, drones, and aircraft — materials play a critical role in shaping performance, safety, and efficiency. As these vehicles become more electric, digital, and autonomous, manufacturers need advanced solutions that address increasingly complex requirements — including lightweighting to improve efficiency and sustainability.

Why Premix for Automotive & Transportation?

Decades of Experience

With over 40 years of expertise in conductive plastics and polymer compounding, Premix brings proven solutions to the complex demands of modern vehicle manufacturing.

Built-In Safety and ESD Protection

Our materials are engineered for consistent electrostatic discharge control, ensuring the safety of sensitive electronics throughout manufacturing, assembly, and operation.

Lightweighting Without Compromise

Premix compounds offer high strength-to-weight ratios and design flexibility, supporting sustainability goals and fuel efficiency across automotive and transportation applications.

Reliable Quality, Every Batch

Thanks to Six Sigma methodologies and rigorous testing, our materials deliver repeatable, high-performance results — minimizing downtime and scrap rates.

Custom Solutions and Versatile Formulations

From standard grades to tailor-made compounds, our solutions are available in various base polymers (PE, PP, and beyond) and can be customized to meet your specific processing and performance needs.

Sustainable, Circular Approach

Our commitment to sustainability drives us to develop recyclable and lower-carbon footprint materials, helping you meet both regulatory and corporate responsibility goals.

Applications

EMI Shielding

Premix conductive compounds enable lightweight, non-metallic shielding solutions for protecting EV powertrains and other critical electronics from electromagnetic interference.

Sensors & Smart Functions

Premix conductive polymers ensure signal accuracy and ESD protection in automotive sensor housings and components — from pressure to position sensing, even in demanding environments.

Heating & Control Panel Components

Our conductive materials can be used in heating systems such as mirrors and windows, and can also enhance safety and functionality in ESD-protected control panel housings.

EV & Hybrid Systems

Our material solutions support the core systems of electric and hybrid vehicles: mixed solutions for battery housings, cell interconnects and shielding for electric motors and power converters.

Fuel System Safety

Fuel filler necks and pipelines made from our conductive plastics prevent static buildup and reduce spark risk, enhancing safety during refueling operations—especially in commercial and high-throughput fueling environments.

Engineering plastics for Trains, Ships & Aircraft

Our lightweight, high-performance compounds are increasingly used in transportation segments beyond cars — where safety, efficiency, and weight savings matter most.
