Unlocking the future of automotive interiors


Understanding the CSS and its relevance

The CSS is crucial for automotive interiors in the construction of car cabins because the strategy focuses on reducing harmful chemicals while also supporting improvements in NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) performance. To ensure safer, sustainable alternatives in the spaces of car cabins, the CSS is introducing new standards around volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

In an interview with our Technical Manager Michel Ravers, we provide you with some  insights into how these evolving regulations impact OEMs and suppliers, and provide practical steps to ensure compliance.

Sustainable automotive interior 

For anyone involved in automotive interior design and manufacturing, or working across various industries, we wrote a white paper to help you understand the impact of the CSS on the automotive interior sector. It provides practical insights, expert analysis, and actionable strategies to help you understand the evolving regulatory landscape. You will find out how Avery Dennison can help your business toward a greener, more compliant future.
