Engineers of tomorrow rely on the Coroplast Group

Curiosity, precision and the goal of achieving top performance - these are the values that unite the university competition "Formula Student" and the Coroplast Group. For many years, supporting the voluntary commitment of the student teams with advice and action has therefore been a given for us.

Formula Student has relied on products from the Coroplast Group for many years

The principle of "Formula Student" is simple: students from different disciplines design, build and market their own single-seater racing car - and compete each year on major race tracks around the world. The winner is not the team with the fastest car, but the team with the best overall package of construction, performance, and financial and sales planning.

The university teams as car manufacturers

The university teams act in a similar way to a car manufacturer: first a prototype is developed, which is then expertly evaluated piece by piece for production. The racing car must have very good driving characteristics such as acceleration, braking and aerodynamics - and it should be offered at a reasonable price. In addition, the market value of the car is enhanced by other factors such as aesthetics, comfort and the use of readily available, standard purchase components.

Our business units as suppliers

The challenge for the teams is to put together an overall package consisting of a well-constructed racing car and a business plan that best meets the specified criteria. The choice of the right materials is therefore crucial: and this is where our Coroplast Tape and Coroflex business units have been very happy to contribute adhesive tape solutions as well as cables and wires for years.
