The car interior is characterized by Shy Tech Designs and homogeneous, multifunctional surfaces.
Our solution: Sealed, smooth and smart surfaces without levers or switches. Fewer and lighter components that reduce CO2 consumption. Virus-free surfaces with BIOFENSE®, the proven long-term hygiene protection. Looking for a groundbreaking solution? We have it. Contact us!
Future Light for car interior
Surface design and lighting design are two brand-defining elements in the vehicle world of tomorrow. LEONHARD KURZ and the manufacturer of MENTOR fiber-optic systems are demonstrating how these two components harmonize perfectly
Futuristic steering wheel design concept with Swarovski Mobility
KURZ and Swarovski Mobility have created another highlight for the interior with this design concept. With functional handmade Swarovski crystals, this concept shows how touch operation on a futuristic steering wheel works via crystal-clear, transparent control surfaces. KURZ, KURZ subsidiary PolyIC, and Swarovski Mobility have also bundled their expertise to create a perfect, functional accessory for the interior in this design.

Metallization of decorative elements
Let it shine!
Chrome and indium set futuristic highlights and can be perfectly combined with 5G applications, backlighting, special colors, and other effects.
HMI in car interior
Catalyst for progress
At first glance, you can’t spot any sign of the technology in the interior. That's because it is hidden behind the latest Shy Tech design and homogeneous surfaces. The first touch or gesture reveals what functionality the vehicle has to offer. HMI is made possible thanks to the patent pending PolyTC® sensors from KURZ subsidiary PolyIC. Produced efficiently on rolls, these sensors are thinner than a human hair. They are also suitable for curved geometries, with a metal mesh structure that makes them especially flexible.
Backlighting
Spot on!
HMI conquers the entire car interior. Also door trims, instrument clusters, and even the roof-lining. Intelligent backlighting concepts ensure intuitive operation and orientation for the driver.
Haptics
Feel good!
A highlight for the senses: Haptic surfaces that feel as natural as leather or teak and that can do more than their natural counterparts. Here, you’ll experience a unique blend of design and functionality! Pure emotion in the car interior!
PolyTC® sensors
The flexible multi-functional artists
Sliding roof and reading lights, controlled by driver and passenger. Integrated gobo projectors that project logos onto the instrument cluster. Volume control on the steering wheel, temperature control directly in the seat. And the perfect connection of the mobile end devices in the passenger area, which can be controlled by voice command. How does it work? With the wafer-thin PolyTC® sensors from KURZ subsidiary PolyIC.
Customize series components for car interior
More individuality and special series, digital processes, and design variations: These developments will shape the car interior of the future. With IMD UNIFY, KURZ offers an extremely efficient solution for all providers who want to give their customers unique products with a series production ready advantage.
