AERO’s revolutionary technology showcases its superior performance, durability and commitment to sustainability on Corvette Racing Cars.
Nothing pushes an automotive finish to its limits like motorsports. So AERO was truly put to the test when applied to the General Motors fleet of Corvette Racing cars. AERO passed with flying colors in both durability and sustainability – further evidence that it represents a revolutionary alternative to spray paint and a genuine solution as the future finish for all vehicle manufacturing at General Motors Company.
“With environmental sustainability a key aspect of General Motors Company’s grand strategy, using paint the way it was traditionally produced is no longer fit for purpose” said James E. McGuire, Jr., CEO of AERO Sustainable Material Technology. “As one of the most energy-intensive, water-intensive, and environmentally hazardous aspects of a vehicle production line, spray paint was always going to be a problem on a sustainability journey” added McGuire. “General Motors Company recognized AERO’s unique sustainability credentials and we’re now part of General Motor’s roadmap towards environmental sustainability sharing our expertise and creating performance finishes that are kinder to the planet.”
AERO finishes have helped Corvette Racing win 2018 and 2020 GTLM Championships, as well as podiums and victories at Le Mans, Daytona, and Sebring, through a reduction in weight, an increase in durability, and a more effective, environmentally sustainable finish.
