Trunk Floor | Maserati Ghibli

The trunk floor is composed of a polypropylene honeycomb core and glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite skins. A honeycomb sandwich panel with wood-flour filled PP composite (WPC) skins is an alternative solution.

The laminated honeycomb panel is converted into the final part by conventional thermoforming.
