2429864 - Introduction - BODYSHELL INTERIOR TRIMS AND FITTINGS

All vehicle interior trim is designed to satisfy severe international flame-resistance standards. The main components are slow-burning: they do not ignite due to accidental contact (for example, if a cigarette is dropped), flames do not develop and, in the presence of fierce heat they burn to produce strong, dense smoke. Trim design and configuration is aimed at producing a high level of acoustic comfort combined with a high degree of passive safety. All the protrusions that could harm car occupants in the case of impact have been eliminated.
