Primaflex

Innovation from responsibilty.

If you want to get ahead, sometimes you have to get back to basics. With Primaflex, we reinvented the raw material for our seat belt springs: the steel strip. Working together with a partner company, KERN-LIEBERS Strip Springs developed a texture-rolled special steel that's particularly robust and durable. That not only makes Primaflex an innovative material – it also contributes to even higher levels of safety.

spring steel strip is a texture rolled high-grade carbon steel. Due to its special characteristics, very high life-cycles results are achieved.
As a global market leader, the KERN-LIEBERS group of companies manufactures and supplies the full range of power springs, from the smallest to the largest.
