Leaf springs made of fibreglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) are substantially lighter and possess greater durability than standard steel springs. We have provided FRP leaf springs for the Mercedes Sprinter van and the VW Crafter, among others, since as far back as 2005. In these types, each 5 kg FRP spring replaces a 25 kg steel spring, which accounts for weight savings of 80 %.
