There is an inevitable shift in the automotive and transportation industry towards carbon neutral mobility. Vehicle designers therefore need to give great consideration to the materials they use, from manufacture to service and end of life. How can stainless steels contribute to carbon neutrality? Our guest speaker, R&D Manager Emrah Dutkun of Stalatube, shares his insights based on over 10 years of experience in coach chassis systems at a major bus OEM. Additionally, Outokumpu specialists discuss the actions we are taking to ensure our material meets the requirements of future mobility.

The vital demands for passenger safety, comfort and alternative powertrain technologies tend to add weight to a bus. This is a challenge, as reducing weight is precisely the key to energy efficiency. How can you optimize the weight of a bus with the right materials and choices in frame design? In our webinar, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Klemens Rother presents some exciting results from a joined project with the aim to minimize structural weight while keeping material and manufacturing costs at a minimum.

Build sustainable with us. Our third architecture webinar puts focus on sustainable design and how you can contribute to a circular economy. What are the advantages of using stainless steel compared to other commonly used metals? The expert panelists include Catherine Houska, an internationally recognized consultant on architectural and structural metals, as well as Juha Erkkilä and Camilla Kaplin from Outokumpu.

Choose the right material for optimized durability. Our second architecture webinar brings you expert knowledge on how to ensure your stainless steel façade will resist corrosion and stand the test of time – giving you valuable insights into material selection. The expert panelists include Catherine Houska, an internationally recognized consultant on architectural and structural metals, as well as Jörn Teipel and Sukanya Hägg Mameng from Outokumpu.

Stainless steel provides any façade with unique aesthetic value. Our first architecture webinar provides insights into the history of stainless steel finishes in architecture as well as modern possibilities and recent case studies showcasing the beauty of stainless steel façades. The expert panelists include Jörn Teipel and Rob Swift from Outokumpu, as well as Till Jackenkroll from POHL.

Like the rest of the automotive industry, bus manufacturing is going through changes and experimenting with new materials. What kind of benefits can stainless steel bring to modern bus designs? Our Lead Technical Manager Barbara Mundt presents some examples.
