Bayfit ® Automotive:
In the driver’s seat
Seldom a material has been used so consistently in car components as in the seats. In fact, well over
90 percent of all car seats are produced using flexible polyurethane foam. On average, that represents
a weight of 10 kilograms per car.
In this application, Bayfit ® foam enhances comfort but also keeps the driver alert. After all, no matter
how comfortable the interior, drivers have to be fully attentive at all times and in every situation. The
elasticity and contours of Bayfit ® also give the occupants ergonomic support to ensure that they can
always maintain the right posture.
Bayfit ® foams dampen vibrations, offer outstanding climate comfort and also have excellent load
resistance – which means they do not deteriorate even during long-term service. They can be used to
manufacture seat and backrest cushioning to fit the contours of the body, as well as head and arm rests
in all conceivable shapes and hardness grades. Using dual-hardness foam technology, the lateral edges
of the seat cushion can be made more stable. This means that, despite the centrifugal forces exerted on
drivers going round corners, they still sit firmly “in the saddle”.
