Originally established in France as Faurecia in 1997, FORVIA entered the ASEAN market in 2011 and officially rebranded in 2022. Specializing in automotive and technology solutions, the company operates across six business groups—seating, interiors, electronics, clean mobility, lighting, and lifecycle solutions—spanning 24 product lines.
FORVIA combines the technological and industrial expertise of Faurecia and HELLA, positioning itself as the preferred innovation and integration partner for OEMs worldwide. As the seventh-largest automotive technology company globally, with an annual revenue of approximately €25 billion, FORVIA focuses on cost-competitive solutions and operational excellence to ensure total customer satisfaction. Today, one in two vehicles worldwide is equipped with FORVIA’s technology, with key ASEAN clients including Ford, Nissan, VinFast, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Mercedes-Benz, and Great Wall.
Adapting to Industry Megatrends
The automotive industry is rapidly evolving, driven by trends such as automated driving, zero-emissions mobility, and sustainable design. To stay ahead, FORVIA acquired a controlling stake in HELLA, a leading German automotive supplier, to expand its range of offerings from fuel cells to seating and electronic components to full cockpits.
Beyond acquisitions, FORVIA has continuously pushed innovation. In 2018, Faurecia showcased its technology at CES Las Vegas, demonstrating its advancements in mobility solutions. In 2019, Faurecia partnered with Michelin to create Symbio, a joint venture focused on hydrogen fuel cell technology for zero-emissions vehicles.
Commitment to Sustainability
Environmental responsibility is at the core of FORVIA’s mission. The company launched the Faurecia Foundation in 2020 to support initiatives in education, mobility, and the environment. In 2022, it aligned with the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) Net-Zero Standard, committing to achieving net-zero global emissions by 2050. This initiative aligns with the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C.
FORVIA’s sustainability efforts extend to its operations. All its plants are ISO 14001:2015 certified for environmental management, and the company is on track to achieve carbon neutrality by 2025. Its six sustainability convictions guide its strategy, emphasizing carbon neutrality, innovation, resource conservation, transparency, workforce diversity, and economic and social contributions.
Investing in People and Workplace Excellence
With over 1,000 employees across ASEAN, FORVIA places a strong emphasis on employee well-being. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it ensured full vaccination access and maintained a safe working environment with no severe cases. The One HQ & One Team initiative further strengthened teamwork by unifying sales, finance, and management teams under one office.
Employees benefit from comprehensive support, including life and health insurance, a provident fund, housing, transportation, and meal allowances. FORVIA also champions internal mobility and career development through FORVIA University, which partners with academic institutions to offer training in innovation, complexity management, teamwork, and resilience. Specialized courses cover soft and hard skills, including public speaking, intercultural training, and English proficiency.
A Recognized Leader in Mobility Innovation
FORVIA’s contributions to the automotive industry have earned it the prestigious Industry Champions of the Year award from ACES. This recognition reflects the dedication of its teams over the past decade in driving forward-thinking, sustainable mobility solutions. Looking ahead, FORVIA remains committed to advancing innovative and meaningful mobility experiences for the future.
