ThermHex-Wabenkernplatten ermöglichen umweltfreundlichere Mobilitätslösungen für die letzte Meile
With the rapid expansion of e-commerce and urban delivery services, last-mile logistics are under increasing pressure to become more sustainable and efficient. A recent article in JEC Magazine, titled “Last-mile mobility calls for composites”, highlights the growing importance of thermoplastic composite materials in reshaping urban transport and ThermHex is proud to be part of this transformation.
ThermHex Waben’s lightweight honeycomb core panels are being adopted in a new wave of cargo bikes, e-vans, and modular delivery vehicles, thanks to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio, recyclability, and cost-efficiency.
“Using our polypropylene honeycomb cores in composite sandwich panels enables manufacturers to produce vehicle bodies that are not only lightweight and durable but also fully recyclable aligning with circular economy goals,” says Tomasz Czarnecki, Head of Sales and CSO at ThermHex.
As cities adopt low-emission zones and greener transport policies, the demand for innovative material solutions continues to rise. ThermHex’s thermoplastic cores offer:
- Reduced vehicle weight for improved energy efficiency
- Enhanced structural performance
- Sustainable material choices from production to end-of-life
