We are shining a spotlight on the potential of advanced recycled aluminium foam technology, led by Fraunhofer IWU. This use case demonstrates how advanced circular materials can deliver high performance while reducing vehicle weight and environmental impact.
Within ZEvRA, this work focuses on three critical technical pillars:
- Circular Materials: Transforming recycled aluminium into high-performance structural foam to lower carbon footprints.
- Lightweight Structure: Implementing innovative foam solutions to maximise energy absorption and crash safety.
- Performance Validation: Utilising advanced simulations to prove circular components meet demanding automotive standards.
Watch as Christian Hannemann explains how partners within ZEvRA are transforming recycled aluminium foam into an industrial reality.
