India’s Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) aims to boost the economy, create jobs, and positioPositioning India as a global automotive manufacturing hub. By prioritizing safer, lighter, and sustainable vehicles, AMP addresses the growing demand for affordable transportation. Envalior supports these goals with advanced materials and design expertise, enabling lightweight, safe, and sustainable vehicles while reducing production costs.
The AMP, a collaborative effort between the Government of India and the automotive industry, outlines strategic initiatives to elevate India’s automotive sector. By 2026, the sector is expected to contribute over 12% to India’s GDP and create more than 65 million jobs. Key priorities include:
Enhancing vehicle safety: Envalior provides tailored material solutions based on real-world conditions, design requirements, and manufacturing processes. With complete regulatory compliance documentation, including UL and IMDS statements, we help streamline quality assurance. Our materials have been used to develop high-performance connected car components that excel in heat and electrical resistance, ensuring vehicles meet global safety standards.
Driving lightweighting initiatives: Lightweighting is critical to improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions. Our Advanced Thermoplastic Composites Tepex®, allow manufacturers to reduce the weight and thickness of structural automotive parts without sacrificing strength. Through advanced computer-aided engineering (CAE) services, we predict part fatigue and failure modes, enabling efficient designs with minimal defects.
Advancing sustainability in automotive design: Sustainability is at the core of Envalior’s mission. We support the production of fuel-efficient and zero-emission vehicles with applications such as low-friction timing chains, high-strength bearing cages, anand components for electric vehicle lithium-ion batteries. Our materials also support hydrogen fuel cell technologies, offering solutions that resist ion leaching and hydrolytic aging, ensuring long-lasting performance.
At Envalior, we combine advanced materials with design and engineering expertise to help manufacturers navigate the complexities of evolving industry standards. Our global footprint ensures reliable supply chains as demand grows, making us a trusted partner in India’s journey to automotive leadership.
