Borealis increases business with Stellantis in South America via unique supply chain
Borealis is excited to announce that it has been nominated as the main PP compound supplier of Jeep Renegade for bumpers and exterior trim applications.
Borealis Brasil grades were approved by Chrysler North America and the parts approved by FMM (Faurecia).
"Borealis unique solutions and supply chain allowed Stellantis to reduce complexity and operational costs, whilst optimizing the stocks level and security of supply",
Daniel Furió, Commercial Director - Specialty Solutions (Borealis South America)
Borealis' integrated logistic solution allows Borealis to provide Stellantis with PP compounds only 50 kilometres from the Jeep supplier’s park. The superior exterior materials for automotive provide the high quality expected to the new 2022 Jeep Renegade bumpers, radiator cover and other exterior trim applications.
Supply chain reliability has been essential for this project, as 'Polo Automotivo Stellantis de Goiana' is located 2.800 km from São Paulo (where a major part of multinational Tier #1 players and polypropylene compound suppliers are located).
About Jeep and Stellantis:
Jeep and Fiat are some of the most iconic brands of the Stellantis group (which resulted out of the union between Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and Peugeot S.A.).
Since the second half of 2015, Jeep assembles vehicles in Brazil at Pernambuco state. The Brazilian production site produces 3 Jeep SUVs (the Renegade, Compass and Commander) and a Fiat pick-up (the Toro). All vehicles have been classified as top sellers in their respective categories.
