TactoTek announces Faurecia has signed a licensing agreement to design and manufacture Injection Moulded Structural Electronics (IMSE) solutions for its automotive customers.
While IMSE is disruptive technology that transforms how electronics are designed and built, by licensing its technology TactoTek supports the long-standing business relationships between OEMs and their suppliers.
TactoTek’s primary business model is licensing its IMSE technology to manufacturers who have a direct relationship with brands/OEMs.
Each licensee differentiates its IMSE-based solutions in the marketplace and specific target use cases as well as their unique approach to industrial design, styling, integration and surface treatments.

TactoTek can develop custom training programs for each licensee to transfer the technology and know-how for them to become IMSE Ready.
David Weill, VP Marketing & Business Development, Faurecia Interiors, said: “TactoTek IMSE is the state-of-the-art for designing and producing plastronics, and now that IMSE parts have passed several Faurecia’s key validation milestones, we are accelerating our development and marketing of IMSE solutions.”
Jussi Harvela, TactoTek CEO, added: “Faurecia’s commitment to IMSE technology is a very important milestone for TactoTek that will expand OEM access to IMSE solutions worldwide.”
