Smart Design from Saint-GobainReducing Weight

Today's consumers demand lighter products. The challenge for designers is reducing weight without compromising on robustness. Saint-Gobain offers a range of solutions which include lightweight, advanced materials to deliver on market expectations.

Saving Space

A number of small space savings in a system can soon add up. Replacing multiple parts with one part or introducing ultra-thin components can free up space and deliver greater comfort to end users.

Cutting Costs

For manufacturers and consumers alike cost savings have never been more important. Working closely with expert component engineers to streamline and combine components can bring down production costs, while eliminating lubricants, delivers savings over a product’s lifetime.

 

AUTOMOTIVE

Saint-Gobain helps you design Automotive applications that meet Automotive OEM specifications, minimize space requirements and reduce costs.

HARD DISK DRIVE

Saint-Gobain helps HDD designers by designing RENCOL® Tolerance Rings which improve resonance and torque ripple performance when mounting the bearing assembly or bearing cartridge.
