ABOUT PIERRE DEMORTAIN
After a Generalist Engineering school education (ICAM) and a carrier start in automotive, I joined the Group Interior Systems Engineering department in 2007 to take the leadership on program development teams on Instrument Panels and Door Panels for Ford, PSA, Volvo and RSA customers, including all product and process aspects, together with integration convergence in vehicles.Those projects have led to numerous international collaborations especially with Asia, and have allowed to create a reliable network which has been the key basis for the set-up of the innovative biomaterial activity I am developing since 2013.Indeed, only the alignment of energies from marketing and innovation but also systems integration experts and customer divisions could allow the emergence of a new value chain with development, commercialization, together with industrialization and deployment on more than 10 millions vehicles, through the independent Joint Venture APM I have managed during 7 yrs, an making it a profitable and sustainable business model.At MATERI\'ACT which is a wider sustainable materials ecosystem integrating APM, I am now involved as Marketing Manager to continue upscaling and enriching the range of innovative sustainable materials with compounds and surface materials now integrating biomass and recycled, for automotive and beyond, worldwide.It started with the development of a material. It has led to a more ambitious marketing of fully validated automotive systems concepts, and now of a complete business model gathering the strengths of agriculture, recycling activities and automotive, toward a more circular economy.Conduct of change continues at SIRMAX from end of 2024 to further deploy circular recycled material solutions in automotive and beyond, keeping a focus on performance, operational readiness, and capacity to make automotive environmental conversion a majority fact.
