It has been nearly 70 years since the song “Blue Suede Shoes” came out, eventually turning this type of fabric into a cultural touchstone. Suede has been used in automotive interior trim for a long time, especially under the name and brand Alcantara. This week’s in-depth report focuses on suede materials, including their sustainability and vegan alternatives.
This week, DVN Interior is attending the Enmore Automotive Congress trade show in Suzhou, China. We look forward to a broad range of show-and-tell in fields including cockpit monitoring, CMF design, cockpit interaction and vehicle display, interior decoration and lighting, NVH, acoustics, HUDs, safety, raw materials, exterior lighting, lidar, and more. We will report about the extensive interior technology content in forthcoming DVN Interior newsletters, so stay tuned.
Thanks for your membership, and remember: the DVN Interior workshop videos are available for download.
Sincerely yours,
