North America the main growth driver in the automotive sector

For Grammer, the Detroit Auto Show is the key forum for addressing its customers in the North American automotive market. Looking ahead over the next few years, Grammer expects to be able to harness additional growth potential in North America thanks in particular to the successful acquisition of the TMD Group. In the NAFTA region, the Grammer Group develops and produces for US OEMs as well as for the models assembled in the United States by German premium OEMs. It has a total of 15 production sites in the United States and Mexico.

With the acquisition of the US automotive components supplier TMD, Grammer is able to significantly expand its market position and manufacturing activities in the United States as well as the rest of North America. TMD is one of the leading development and process specialists for thermoplastic solutions in the Northern American automotive market and has its own tooling facilities. In this way, interior components for visible and non-visible applications in the automotive industry are engineered and produced locally. Together with TMD, Grammer will be additionally expanding its position as one of the leading suppliers of automotive interior components in North America.
