Faurecia today announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the sale of its Acoustics and Soft Trim (AST) division to the Adler Pelzer Group (APG), a worldwide leader in automotive acoustic and thermal components and systems.

The AST business represented sales of €385 million in 2019 within the Interiors Business Group and employs around 1,820 employees in 8 plants and one R&D center, all in Europe. 

This project represents the best opportunity for the future development of AST and would create a global leader in acoustics and soft trim.
