UNIFIED VISION
Our Plastic Plate division defined unique distinctions in interior décor trim for premium F-150 trim levels, showcasing unmatched craftsmanship through our advanced finish technologies.
Premium finishes included:
13 décor trim components // 7 Tessera® textures
7 Spinelle™ colors // 2 plating surfaces
Pattern design, precision depth, scale, orientation, placement, and edge control were tailored to ensure the desired look and feel was flawlessly achieved.
FLEXIBILITY
Using custom textures, Ford designers highlighted each trim level’s unique personality.
COMPLEXITY
We enabled Ford to create multiple unique surface textures using the same tooling mold, saving millions in cost.
CONSISTENCY
The F-150 team received industry-leading quality and collaboration throughout the design and build process.
ACTION
Plastic Plate collaborated with Ford’s Design, Quality, and Color & Materials teams to achieve the desired aesthetics and tactile feel Ford was looking for. With Spinelle™ translucent tints, Ford could refine colors to harmonize each model’s palette seamlessly.
DESIGN
Translating inspiration into manufacturable design combines both our design understanding and production innovation. Lacks finish technologies and expert engineering and industrial design teams worked with Ford to bring custom patterns to life to tell cohesive stories for each trim level. We seek to help elevate every stage of program development to push boundaries and deliver stunning outcomes.
