Short notice given only substantially as follows: Johnson Controls has launched the Synergy Seat, a production-ready seat system for both standard and hybrid vehicles. It is nearly 100 % recyclable, requires less foam than conventional seats, and offers a high level of occupant comfort, says its maker. The Synergy Seat leverages Johnson Controls next-generation, lightweight MS seat structure. An all-steel version of this structure is 32 % lighter than conventional systems, while the aluminium-steel version - targeting hybrid vehicles - is up to 40% lighter. The seat's comfort shell, side shields and back panels are made of recyclable polypropylene. The seat is covered with an earth-friendly material made of a new generation of technically advanced, polyurethane-based products. This material is said to be easy-toclean, 68% lighter than leather and is manufactured using an environmentally sound production process.
