Seat Foam & Trim

Trim: Global Facilities Delivering Best-in-Class Products

Johnson Controls’ state-of-the-art technologies offer OEMs new design opportunities for differentiating their brands.

Apart from our conventional technologies, we also utilize electro-welding, designed grain leather and trim pre-forming techniques, decorative stitching, and in-house leather cutting to deliver a high level of craftsmanship.

The traditional cut-and-sew and trim development processes start as soon as the first foam prototypes are available. Then a trim template is digitized for the chosen CAD approach. Nesting is used to optimize fabric-cutting efficiency and to minimize the amount of scrap. In the final steps, the materials are sewn together and the seat covers are promptly delivered to the customer.

Innovative Design Technologies that Enhance Interior Value and Enable Brand Differentation

Johnson Control's expertise in cut and sew and Michele Thierry's expertise in fabrics meet our customers' increasing need for integrated services - from fabrics to complete seats - on a global scale. This integration offers our customers enhanced innovation opportunities and the potential for further quality optimization by covering the entire process chain with early customer involvement.
