Kautex fuel tanks for Jaguar Land Rover
Kautex fuel tanks for Jaguar Land Rover
When our client Kautex Unipart won a contract to supply fuel tanks for new Jaguar Land Rover vehicles in 2020, they ran a competitive tender for the supply of plastic tube assemblies.
Having supplied similar products to other OEMs, Kautex were confident Sanoh UK was the right partner for the Jaguar Land Rover vehicles.
Our ability to offer UK-based manufacturing and supply was key, coupled with localized European plastic tube sourcing, our innovative thermo-forming process for plastic tube and full assembly and delivery to the Kautex plant in Coventry, all at a competitive whole-project price.
Sanoh UK will manufacture all the dedicated benders, gauges and assembly fixtures here in our Bristol Engineering Centre. Many, if not all, of our expert engineers and apprentices will be involved in building those machines ready for mass the production of parts in the summer of 2020.
We hope this will prove the first in a series of tank assembly projects for Jaguar Land Rover vehicles in the coming years.
