Freudenberg Sealing Technologies (FST) Automotive, a market leader in the auto industry’s technology, quality and service segments, offers a diverse portfolio of products to all the major automobile and commercial vehicle manufacturers worldwide. The portfolio includes a large assortment of seals ranging from our near frictionless dynamic seal, Levitex, to static sealing solutions suited for even the harshest conditions.

As battery, fuel cell, charging and hybrid technology emerge, so does the growth in our product offerings. To meet the demands of these new systems, FST is now prepared and ready ready to support solutions that extend outward from sealing. The electrification of the vehicle creates potential needs for electromagnetic interference shielding and pressure management. For this, we now offer a wide array of EMI shielding plastics and DIAvent®, respectively. The list of our innovations is constantly growing in the fields of battery, fuel cell, e-powertrain, power electronics, engines, transmissions, suspensions, steering systems, drivetrains, climate control, & conventional fuel systems.

All of this is made possible by our cutting-edge research, absolute perfection in manufacturing and outstanding customer service. We look forward to what we can create together!

The Future Begins Now

As an innovative partner to our customers, Freudenberg provides custom-engineered materials and technology expertise to resolve all of your E-Mobility challenges.

Our portfolio on components addressing thermal management, temperature and pressure control, power densities and service improve the safety, reliability and range of electric vehicles. Our DIAvent® component, for example, offers intelligent pressure management solutions for large batteries in electric and hybrid vehicles. Specially developed heat shields for lithium-ion battery systems prevent the heat from “propagating” to neighboring cells when cells malfunction. The patented nonwovens they contain reliably ensure bi-directional pressure compensation even under extreme conditions.

Battery Sealing & Car Battery Heat Shields

Advanced lithium batteries are used for EVs, P-HEVs, but also for 48 V mild hybrid vehicles. Besides this, they are also required for future fuel cell vehicles. Battery technology for mobility is changing rapidly. FST is in turn fine-tuning its portfolio to offer its customers top of the line solutions in gasket sealing, cell fixation, thermally conductive gap fillers and materials, pressure regulating elements, connectors, cooling tubes, and full integration of sensors into connectors. In addition, we are also working on lithium cell components such as our in-cell gap fillers.

Our solutions help to realize a battery electric world in that we are improving safety & reliability via thermal management and tolerance compensation elements.

Applications in Which We Make Parts

Plug & Seal

Keeping moisture and debris out of the battery housing is of the utmost importance. Our plug seals help prevent thermal propagation due to the sealing of external media while simultaneously reducing assembly efforts.
