Customer Success Story: German Automotive Supplier Reduces Defect Rate by 40%

May 18, 2026

One of Germany's leading automotive electronics suppliers partnered with AcePlas to overhaul their ESD packaging strategy.

The Challenge

The customer was experiencing a 3.2% defect rate on sensitive ECU components during transport, primarily due to inadequate ESD protection.

Our Solution

We designed a custom multi-layer packaging solution using conductive carrier tape, heat seal cover tape, and anti-static reels — all with verified surface resistance below 10^6 Ω.

The Result

After 6 months, the defect rate dropped to 1.9% — a 40% improvement — saving the customer an estimated €200,000 annually.
