Euro Advanced Carbon Fiber Composites GmbH (EACC) is a rapidly growing company based in Esslingen am Neckar, Germany. However, they continue to use SMC for their trunk flaps because the antenna is located there and carbon blocks radio signals while glass fiber allows them. EACC uses carbon sheet molding compound (C-SMC), a fiber plastic composite with carbon instead of glass fiber, for their cargo floors. The joint venture company was founded in 2011 and is focused on supporting premium carmakers in building safe, efficient, and low-emission vehicles.
