FRX Innovations’ Nofia(R) Adopted by a major Chinese Automotive OEM and International Car Brand

“Nofia meets strictest requirements for car interior foam.”

March 15, 2023 – TheNewswire – BOSTON, MA – FRX Innovations (TSXV:FRXI) (FSE:W2A.F) (OTC:FRXIF) (“FRX” or the “Company”), (“FRX,” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that its customer Chiao Fu Enterprise Co., Ltd. (“Chiaofu”) has recently commercialized a new Nofia-based polyurethane foam application with one of China’s largest automotive OEMs, and owner of major car brands outside of China, as well. This is now the second major automotive OEM to adopt Nofia-based Polyurethane foam for passenger compartment interiors following successful adoption of NOFIA by a German automotive OEM for luxury cars.

“Chiaofu is an important FRX customer and partner in the Chinese polyurethane automotive foam sector” said Marc Lebel, Chief Executive Officer of FRX Innovations, “The Chinese automotive passenger compartment specifications are amongst the toughest in the world. Foam used must meet flame retardancy standards, as well as deliver exceptionally low odor, low volatile organic content (TVOC), and superior fogging resistance – strict commercial requirements which our Nofia flame retardants help exceed, and in a proven economically competitive manner”.

Traditional flame retardants for automotive interiors struggle to meet the strict requirements of Chinese odor and TVOC combined with European TVOC requirements such as VDA 278.

Nofia flame retardants are both polymeric and halogen-free and can meet all these requirements as well as produce a low scorch foam.

“This expansion of our business in flexible foam for automotive interiors is one of the many government regulations driving revenue growth being experienced by FRX”, stated Marc Lebel. “The requirement for higher quality, lower odor, lower TVOC, halogen-free fire-retardant foam is only going to grow to more related applications and more brands, and to other regions. FRX is well positioned to gain market share in reported $100M plus market segment for flame retardants used in flexible automotive foam.”

FRX is a commercial producer of green, non-leaching Nofia® flame retardant additives with applications in a wide range of consumer applications. Many traditional flame retardant solutions are increasingly being regulated out of use because of unacceptable health risks to people and animals and the environment over time. As new regulations, consumers and investors demand OEMs to move away from toxic chemicals, FRX Nofia® is positioned to lead with a first mover advantage across multiple markets.

ChiaoFu challenges itself to embrace stricter and tougher quality standards and has been successful in obtaining numerous international quality certifications, including ISO9001, ISO14001, TS16949, RoHS, MVSS 302 Automobile Flame-Retardant Regulation, BS5852, Californian Flammability Standards CAL TB-117, Food Industry Research and Development Institute (FIRDI) Anti-bacterial Standards of Taiwan, CSA, Lloyd’s Register and Underwriter Laboratory Inc (UL). In 2007, Chiao Fu obtained the Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) for aircraft seat cushions issued by Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA).

Chiao Fu believes in the values of providing quality products with fair prices, employing green materials to protect the environment, and making contribution to the community.
