Utilizing state-of-the-art technology and precise manufacturing, we ensure our textiles meet the stringent standards of the automotive industry. Whether it's design, comfort, or durability, our solutions for vehicle headliners seamlessly blend quality with innovation.
Safety Nets
KARL MAYER machines are designed to produce high-quality nets for automotive applications, such as protective cargo nets for trunks.
Sun Protection
Interior shading textiles can be tailored to provide up to 100% shading, depending on customer preferences, always guaranteeing ideal lighting conditions within the space.
Car Body
Composites made from carbon fibers are primarily used where low weight and high rigidity are essential. As a result, they are utilized in sectors such as aviation, automotive, and sports goods, where these advantages provide significant potential for cost savings and performance enhancement.
Battery Cover
The automotive industry produces highly sophisticated products. For some time, engineers have been concentrating on utilizing carbon and other high-performance textile-based materials. In the future, car chassis and bodies made from high-performance fibers will become increasingly common. The growing use of lightweight components reinforced with textiles presents significant opportunities. In particular, criteria such as low weight, high stability, and customized rigidity are crucial in the automotive sector.
Airbags
KARL MAYER’s state-of-the-art machines enable the production of specialized warps used in airbag manufacturing.
Truck Tarpulins
Truck tarpulins generally conists of warp knitted coating substrates, typically made from high-strength polyester yarns, feature two straight yarn layers oriented at 0° and 90°. These are secured with knitting yarn to create a textile substrate with exceptional tear propagation resistance and tensile strength at low weights per unit area.
Aircraft
Airplanes
Composites made from carbon fibers are primarily used where low mass and high rigidity are required. These materials are advantageous in sectors like aviation, automotive, and sports goods, where their benefits can lead to cost savings and performance improvements.
Watercraft
Boat Hulls
Using KARL MAYER technology, we can meet all market requirements, processing common materials like fiberglass for standard applications in boat building.
Sailing Boats
We produce non-crimp fabrics from sustainable natural fibers like flax or hemp, offering a lower CO2 footprint than comparable glass composites while maintaining an equivalent performance-to-weight ratio. The processing of yarns and tapes made from natural fibers is also feasible.
Rail Vehicles
Trains
In commercial vehicles and public transport, materials must meet high demands for toughness, load capacity, and durability.
