Recent developments in equipment for Reaction Injection Molding (RIM) combined with improvements in self-skinning foam technology and part design have given a new dimension to crash pad production in the automotive industry.An example of such production applied to the French market is presented. In addition, a brief comparison of self-skinning foam crash pads via RIM versus other processes is outlined.
