We will be presenting an exciting Lean Bonding update – Lean Bonding PP – together with Powdertech Surface Science. Joining technology is at the centre of technical discussions as the automotive industry transforms and embraces advanced mixed material concepts. Both the US and European conferences will take place virtually, forming an all-virtual Automotive Circle Joining in Car Body Engineering week, 2021. More [conference info HERE](https://www.automotive-circle.com/en/conferences/joining-conference-week) bigHead Fasteners Ltd is evaluating PowderBondPP from Powdertech Surface Science to extend its Lean Bonding® process capability to join metal fasteners to polypropylene, the most widely used thermoplastic. The two technologies have a natural synergy and our collaboration is looking specifically at creating strong reliable bonds with a simple, customer-ready process.
