Car Fuel Tank (CFT)
The automotive market is global, highly competitive and rapidly changing.
At INEOS Olefins & Polymers Europe we are aware of the pressures this brings, and, as a result, we are working in partnership with OEMs to further reduce costs and improve environmental performance.
HDPE has become the material of choice for Automotive Car Fuel Tanks in Europe and the Americas, and is replacing steel at an increasing rate elsewhere around the world.
The overriding advantage of HDPE car fuel tanks is safety, including:
- Lighter weight
- Lower cost
- Absence of corrosion
- Design freedom
- Easy integration of other components
- 100% recyclability
