Burscheid, Germany - Johnson Controls International has joined with UK luxury mattress manufacturer Harrison Spinks Ltd to integrate pocketed coil springs developed from mattress technology into an automotive seat concept called ComfortThin. Seat maker Johnson Controls Automotive Experience said in a news release that the resulting thin profile seats will replace conventional urethane foam pads with a 100-percent recyclable alternative, and provide a five to 20 percent weight reduction. This technology will be available for 2015 model year vehicles, according to the company.
