KEY CUSTOMER CHALLENGES:
• Improving Fuel Economy - Incorporating innovative lighter-weight alternative
materials as a cost-effective way to reduce fuel consumption
• Reducing Energy Consumption and Dependence on Fossil Fuels -
Negative public perceptions of fossil fuels are challenging companies to utilize
alternative energy sources and also to reduce overall demand (consumption)
• Reducing Carbon Footprint - Companies are seeking assistance from their
suppliers to address the ever-increasing pressure to reduce their carbon footprint
• Lessening Environmental Impact - Manufacturers are looking to reduce
dependence on processes with high environmental impact such as the release of
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) during painting
