For the customer requirements of tomorrow

Under the motto "We transform visions into plastic solutions", POLYTEC SOLUTION FORCE develops plastic solutions for the customer requirements of tomorrow.

 

In line with this principle, POLYTEC is realising the idea of the Austrian high-tech company Easelink for an automated charging system for electric vehicles. Thanks to its comprehensive knowledge of materials and technology, POLYTEC is developing the plastic components for the so-called Matrix Charging® pads as a solution partner. The charging pads are realised with the aid of technically highly resilient plastics. These not only fulfil strict safety criteria under high-voltage conditions, but also offer resistance to corrosion caused by road salt and grit, as well as withstanding the stresses of heavy vehicles.

 

More than 50 Matrix Charging® Pads are already being successfully piloted for eTaxis in Vienna and Graz. These charging pads are integrated into car parks in a barrier-free and space-saving manner, thus making a significant contribution to creating an environmentally friendly and liveable environment in the spirit of green cities.

 

A look into the future of the cooperation between Easelink and POLYTEC shows that the realised solution for the highly robust charging infrastructure is also to be extended to other applications as well as to other cities and countries.

 

This promising cooperation on the new automated charging technology marks another important milestone for us at POLYTEC in the direction of electromobility. We look forward to rolling out this highly innovative Matrix Charging® system together with Easelink and thus making a contribution to environmentally friendly transport and improving the quality of life in urban areas
