Products and innovations
ElringKlinger is concentrating on one of the megatrends in the automotive industry: the reduction of emissions. Almost all products help reduce carbon dioxides, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons or soot particles – whether through new lightweight design concepts, further optimization of the combustion engine or alternative drive technologies.
Laws around the world will be requiring drastic reductions in CO2 emissions over the next few years. With its innovative technologies, ElringKlinger can help ensure that these stringent targets are met.
Research and development forms the basis for a strong culture of innovation. Indeed, it is part of ElringKlinger’s corporate philosophy to be close to its customers, to pick up on trends at an early stage and to play an active role in shaping innovations. At around 5% of turnover, the company has spent a relatively high amount on research and development in recent years compared with the industry as a whole, with the resources deployed underpinning the ElringKlinger Group’s strong competitive position.
