Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) Solutions

Electric mobility demands absolute thermal precision. Our integrated solutions manage severe temperature regulation loops to maximize battery life, safeguard fast-charging capabilities, and ensure overall passenger comfort without compromising weight budgets.

Next-Gen Lightweighting

By replacing multi-part metal assemblies with customized multi-layer plastic layouts and proprietary quickconnectors, we unlock massive weight savings. This directly increases e-car drive ranges and eases complex chassis pack integration.

Dual-Powertrain Fluid Complexity

Hybrids are the ultimate packaging challenge, packing an engine, battery, and power electronics under one hood. Tristone designs space-saving multi-circuit surge tanks and smart branch lines that flawlessly bridge separate thermal zones.

High-Performance ICE Management

Modern downsized, turbocharged combustion engines require resilient charging and cooling paths. Our air-charge systems manage extreme pressures up to 3.5 bars and fiery ambient environments up to 220°C, drastically dropping emission levels.

Tristone is a market leader offering a full range of technologies and materials to customise product solutions within all specifications. Tristone continuously innovates, and it has secured major technical advances with many automated technologies including Creatube automated hose manufacturing, as well as mono, bi-layer knitted rubber hoses, short fiber reinforced monolayer hoses.
Rubber hoses

Plastic extruded pipes have been developed during the last decade to allow important weight and cost reductions as well as improved recyclability, as an alternative to rubber in specific applications. Tristone still maintains important investments in this technology and it is developing and proposing a large range of material solutions including mono- and multilayers.
Plastic pipes

Today, Tristone is able to complement its production of assemblies with its own range of plastic quickconnectors and housings.
Plastic Quickconnectors and housings

Strong expertise in product design, with innovative concepts to optimize the hydraulic structure and package. And to offer better solutions like the multi circuit surge tank. Tristone's process solutions across semi-automatic and fully automated production cells are adapted to high volumes and quality levels with single digit ppm.
Surge tanks

Engines and their sub-systems get ever more complex. The demand for packaging to save weight and space increases constantly. TRISTONE has the most advanced technology for that. We are a one of the market leader for all your cooling needs. Complexity made simple, robust, reliable and efficient. That is incorporated in our own developments as well as in those we co-create with our customers. So we have an incredibly wide range of complementary product as well as brain power ready to cool your engines down. Coolness redefined, that is.

Surge tanks

With its technical competence and expertise in air management and cooling, Tristone offers air guide solutions to optimise vehicle engine performance. Tristone integrates smart ideas in the process and is a key partner of automotive customers in the codesign of engineering proposals and cost reduction.
Air guides

Tristone integrates and develops various plastic technologies including injection, 3D suction blow-moulding, extrusion and welding technologies to provide more solutions to water pipes design. This process flexibility is a key asset to meet new, demanding constraints on engine packaging.
Water pipes

To meet car builders' design expectations of increasingly complex engine cooling circuits, Tristone offers assembly solutions to a wide range of demands. Tristone develops its own solutions with the focus on quality, robustness and cost optimisation. As an example Tristone provides a plastic ring overmoulding solution that maintains extremely high levels of sealing even at -40°C allied with very impressive long-term ageing characteristics.
Assemblies

The material hostile environment of air charging has spread into regions of extreme cold, extreme hot and extremely high pressures. TRISTONE has mastered these demands with some first-time ever technologies, applying a unique mix of smart thinking with a wide range of materials. Especially in the fields of noise absorbing, high tech-materials and in meeting the ever increasing Euro VI challenges, we not only know. We do! Because engineering based on scientific experience and knowledge is an unbeatable combination.

Tristone provides a wide range of high-temperature rubber hoses to meet the increase in working conditions of new engines of up to 220°C and 3.5 bars, with a broad list of compounds like: CR, CM, EAM, ACM, FPM, FPQM, FKM, etc. In parallel with its plastic technology, Tristone was first in the world to introduce the plastic 3D suction blowmoulded ducts to the market for cold side applications.
Soft hoses

The focus is on flexibility by proposing the optimum solution to each application with respect to the high level of the working conditions. Tristone offers metal and plastic ducts from injection and 3D suction blowmoulding. The technology is selected and optimized with regard to the package, airflow performance and required function integration.
