WORLD’S FIRST PLASTIC WHEEL BEING DEVELOPED

Thermoplastic Composite Wheel Could Revolutionize Wheel Technology

Sabic and Kringlan composites, among other partners are developing the world’s first thermoplastic composite wheel. The wheel uses Sabic’s Ultem resin technology and Kringlan-developed three-dimensional composite design platform to build a material that can replace the need for metal and aluminium alloy, which would significantly reduce the weight of the wheel and save on automotive emissions.
