Strategic Partnership: Fibroline and Howa Tramico launch an Eco-Innovative Car Roof

23 . 07 . 2025

As part of their strategic partnership, Howa Tramico is industrially launching a car roof that eliminates the need for solvents developed by Fibroline impregnation technologies. Howa Tramico is a European leader for the design and production of car roofs. Fibroline is the world leader for dry powder impregnation systems.

The use of Fibroline dry powder impregnation technologies in the manufacture of car roofs marks a significant breakthrough innovation for this industry. Thanks to these patented solutions, it is possible to completely eliminate solvents and effluents from the production process. This reduces VOC (Volatile organic compounds)  emissions and odours in the passenger compartment by more than 100 times.

The use of powder technology also makes it possible to design single-material parts, greatly simplifying their end-of-life recycling. These advantages are compounded by significant productivity gains, making this innovation a real opportunity to combine industrial performance with environmental responsibility. It is a concrete contribution to the automobile industry’s carbon neutrality targets.

For both partners, this launch is just the beginning of a new generation of innovative products, designed to create a more environmentally friendly and efficient automobile.
