The Acella® product brand stands for more than 125 years of innovation. As a high-quality imitation leather with a realistic-looking grain, Acella® continues to impress today as a first-class surface material for automotive interiors.
Its strengths? Not only the usual excellent chemical resistance, high scratch resistance and abrasion resistance, but also the ever smaller ecological footprint!
Sustainability first – a smart move
Continental has set itself the goal of creating surface solutions that are 100 percent climate-neutral. For the Acella® product brand, this means that the surface can be manufactured with up to 50 percent bio-based raw materials and a recycled content of up to 30 percent.
The result? CO2 emissions can be reduced by up to 35 percent compared to the conventional Acella® variant. This means that the imitation leather improves the eco-balance of the entire vehicle and thus paves the way for greater sustainability.
Acella® considerably reduces carbon footprint
The classic Acella® can be manufactured in a variety of customized solutions. Based on the respective design, different PCF values (PCF = product carbon footprint) result, which provide information on how climate-friendly a product is.
Acella® as a drop-in solution
Another plus of the sustainable Acella® variants: Without compromising on quality and performance, the climate-friendly designs can be easily integrated into existing production processes. No special adjustments are required to use the sustainable Acella® variants.
