At this event, Kolon Industries is showcasing engineering plastic parts for vehicles and high-strength POM (polyoxymethylene) products under the theme 'e-Mobility & Sustainability.' In particular, the company is also exhibiting eco-friendly technology products such as PCR PA (polyamide) made from recycled plastics and Bio POM made from bio-based raw materials.

In the automotive parts segment, Kolon Industries is presenting a range of engineering plastic parts designed for the electric vehicle market, which is at the center of the growth of the Chinese automotive industry. The company's PA materials feature high rigidity, dimensional stability, heat resistance, and color stability, making them suitable for use in core electric vehicle components, such as battery pack housings and charging door modules.

A variety of applications using high-stiffness (HS) POM are also among the key products at this exhibition. HS POM is one of Kolon Industries' flagship engineering plastic products, characterized by over 10% higher mechanical strength and wear resistance compared to conventional POM. Leveraging its outstanding physical properties, the company is expanding its markets and customer base. For the first time, Kolon Industries has opened a dedicated exhibition zone for these products, showcasing items such as automotive window motor gears and seat belts.

The company is also exhibiting engineering plastic products applied to everyday consumer goods. Products on display include medical devices such as insulin pens, showerhead components, and cosmetic containers.

Jung Hongryeong, Head of the ENP Business Division at Kolon Industries, stated, "Eco-friendly engineering plastics are the most effective solution for building a sustainable industrial ecosystem," adding, "Kolon Industries will continue to expand its portfolio of eco-friendly products, leveraging world-class engineering plastic technology."
