The Company also has sales and distribution capabilities in the US and Japan. In India, the Group has an engineering design office and in the process of creating a new global supply chain centre and corporate centre.

A specialist supplier of interior automotive components for the world’s leading OEMs and Tier-1 manufacturers, the CT Automotive supplies components and interior trims across 55 different models for 22 Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM”). The Group’s range encompasses products such as decorative finishes, air vents, arm rests and wrapped assemblies, mechanical assemblies and light guides working collaboratively, with customers to meet our Customers’ needs.
