The Challenge: Consider a market-leading tier 1 supplier that needed to improve the strength of the front-end module to prevent the vehicle hood latch from opening in a crash. By replacing the metal plate and integrating the Polystrand material into the molded part, the supplier saved 8 pounds of overall vehicle weight.
