DESIGN AND ENGINEERING

Benefiting from simulated design processes and reduced material use, smart surfaces are up to 70% lighter in mass, leading to significant lifetime GHG reductions.

Replacing conventional multi-part assembly electronics with seamless forms, encapsulated electronics, and components in a one-piece structure.

Environmental impact
50
%

Quantified improvement across 11 different environmental impact categories.

Measured environmental impact categories ranging from Greenhouse Gas Emissions to Acidification and Nature Occuptation.

MANUFACTURING

Additive manufacturing processes lead to reduced assembly and 80% fewer manufacturing tools.

Complex multi-step manufacturing processes of conventional electronics are turned into a four-step process, following industry standards.

LOGISTICS

Production of IMSE parts leads to leaner logistics through a reduction in materials and fewer manufacturing locations.

The required transportation volume and mass are significantly reduced.

Materials and components

A seamless one-piece smart structure replaces multi-part assemblies and uses up to 70% less plastics.

IMSE mass manufacturing reduces the use of plastic resins and petrochemical products.
