About Audi

Audi AG is a German premium automotive manufacturer headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, and a core brand of Volkswagen Group. Founded in 1909, the company traces its heritage to Auto Union—reflected in its four-ring logo—and designs, engineers, and manufactures passenger vehicles with a global production and R&D footprint.

Relevant to the chemical industry, Audi’s vehicles integrate a wide range of materials and chemistries, including engineering plastics, polyurethane foams, elastomers, adhesives and sealants, corrosion protection and decorative coatings, and specialized fluids for powertrain and thermal management. The company’s electrification programs (battery-electric and plug-in hybrid models) rely on battery cell materials and components such as cathode/anode chemistries, electrolytes, separators, thermal interface materials, and fire-retardant systems, alongside end-of-life recycling efforts. Lightweight construction combines aluminum alloys, high-strength steels, and fiber-reinforced composites. Interior and exterior material development includes low-emission coatings, VOC management, and increased use of recycled and bio-based polymers. Audi conducts life-cycle assessments and engages suppliers on material efficiency and supply-chain decarbonization within broader Volkswagen Group sustainability objectives.
