In the heavy truck market, the use of plastic components to reduce weight and improve aerodynamics can make a significant contribution to fuel economy. The greater size of truck parts and the longer durability requirements, compared with their automotive counterparts, are spurring innovation in processes and materials to produce exterior applications, interior appointments, and even trailer panels. Material improvements are even helping expand opportunities for polyolefins in the underhood environment.
