ThermHex polypropylene honeycomb cores with thermoplastic skin layers are already used in the automotive industry. The material is used e. g. by Renolit under the name Gorcell for the trunk floors of the Maserati Gihbli and the Jaguar F-Type. In Japan, Gifu Plastics’ technology is marketed under the name Teccell and used, for example, for the trunk cover of the Toyota Prius PHV. In these applications a cost-efficient weight reduction in combination with a good recyclability could be realized.
