As part of a strategic commitment to innovation in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, Eastman is launching Saflex Evoca advanced interlayers, a new platform that unites and expands the Saflex portfolio of interlayers specifically designed for EV applications. Each product is developed to offer enhanced vehicle design, improve cabin comfort, and enable efficient energy usage.
"Electric vehicles are the future. That’s why we created Saflex Evoca," says Alan Phillips, director, films application research and development at Eastman. “The interlayer solutions under Saflex Evoca can set a new standard in the EV industry, helping manufacturers take charge of the future. We’re excited to see how these solutions will contribute to widespread adoption of electric vehicles and drive us toward a more sustainable future.”

Saflex Evoca interlayers provide innovative solutions that specifically target these challenges, empowering OEMs and glass suppliers with greater design flexibility to effectively balance these competing needs. Saflex Evoca products enable OEMs, glass suppliers, and industry experts to create more efficient vehicles without compromising driver and passenger comfort. By addressing the evolving needs of drivers, Saflex products support the development of EVs that meet customer expectations for connectivity, electric range, and comfort.
