De Beer Plastics is an experienced partner for OEM, Tier 1 and Tier 2 customers. We co-create and manufacture high-quality automotive components and assemblies.
De Beer Plastics: your partner in tackling challenges
The automotive supply chain is all about partnerships between parties with industry expertise and experience. Whether it’s complex projects or technically challenging components, with De Beer Plastics you have a reliable, state-of-the-art manufacturing partner that focuses on solutions.
From technical components for powertrain systems to body parts, and from kinetic assemblies for convertible roofs to decorative interior trim: we understand the process steps and specifications of your projects.
Precision with challenging plastics
De Beer Plastics is a leader in specialist expertise in the field of innovative engineering plastics for the automotive industry. Examples include bearing or centring rings made from PA4.6, moulded to an accuracy of 0.01 mm, or water channels for thermal management systems made from PPS. We process the most challenging raw materials on our state-of-the-art injection moulding machines.
Complex kinetic compositions
A perfect interplay of multiple components, fully tailored to functionality and quality. That is the promise De Beer Plastics makes to its customers. From innovative mechanisms for tailgates on the latest electric cars to complex kinetic assemblies for the convertible roof of a legendary British premium brand.
With our experienced and expert R&D engineers and mould makers, we act as co-creators in the development of cutting-edge solutions. And because we have all the necessary capabilities in-house, we can make adjustments quickly to achieve absolute perfection.
Sealing technology for the automotive industry
One of De Beer Plastics’ specialities is the processing of thermoplastic elastomers. We process over 300 different soft materials, and TPE is in our DNA.
In the automotive industry, we process high-quality TPE for seals used in applications such as camera systems or moving body parts. We also use it for interior components such as centre console mats and cup holders.
De Beer Plastics also processes thermoplastic elastomers on high-tech 2K machines, which enable the production of hard-soft combinations.
Turnkey projects
At De Beer Plastics, we combine high-quality production methods that go beyond simple injection moulding to deliver complete, turnkey projects. This starts with R&D and mould-making, but also includes automation and assembly, ranging from smart tools to full assembly lines.
Various methods, such as mirror welding and ultrasonic welding, are used to join plastic parts together. Inserting brass inserts or the fully automated overmoulding of aluminium castings are just a few examples of the in-house production capabilities we offer.
Quality
Our expertise covers the entire production chain; in our in-house toolmaking department, we not only manufacture precision production moulds, but also jigs and fixtures for quality control during series production. The quality of the end product starts with the right foundation.
Our factories are equipped with state-of-the-art, high-precision 3D measuring machines and a 3D scanner, enabling us to measure even the most complex components across their entire geometry with accuracy down to the thousandth of a millimetre.
For customers in the automotive industry, we operate in accordance with the IATF 16949 standards.
