We'll be there: From 12 to 14 November at the Automotive Interiors Expo in Stuttgart

Stop by and experience our latest innovation:

Our joint project FIM-SlimLIGHT is all about smart futuristic surfaces. It showcases a pioneering futuristic concept, packed with the answers for the film decoration of tomorrow:

- very thin and cost-effective surface lighting from edge to edge
- Shy-Tec Surface: hidden ambient lighting with a futuristic lighting design
- control elements with invisible sensors by Film-Insert-Molded-Electronics (FIM-E)
- 3D shaped surfaces with various hardcoat structures from matt to high-gloss

We look forward to your visit in hall 10 at booth no. 1226

Fair

The automotive interiors expo opened its gates in Stuttgart from November 8th until november 10th 2022.

Micropattern

The screen-printed structures that a customer wanted to have implemented for a new decorative component should be smaller than technically possible. Line thicknesses of less than 0.1 mm are consistently rejected in feasibility assessments for screen printing series production. Not so from the team at BÖ-LA SMART DESIGN, who took up the challenge. A solution for the realisation of structures with only a few hundredths of line width was not in the drawer - precisely because this was previously not possible in series production and could only be realised by means of other printing technologies, such as gravure printing. It was only in cooperation between BÖ-LA SMART DESIGN and external partners that a way could be found to enable such fine structuring in screen printing.

BÖ-LA SMART DESIGN is an in-house design team with a special focus on innovative backlit decors that go far beyond today's ambient lighting. BÖ-LA SMART DESIGN has "invented" our trend-setting "TWO-IN-ONE-Designs", with high-resolution, lifelike stone, wood or fur decors, and combines them with a second hidden "secret-unti-lit" design that only becomes visible when backlit.

Discover the possibilities - no one knows the innovative design possibilities of backlit screen printing decors better than we do. Challenge us - we'll be happy to design the custom surface for your next generation of cars or appliances.
