With the increase of media content and safety constraints, the development of hybrid and electric engines along with the advent of connected and autonomous cars, wire harnesses have truly become the nervous system of a vehicle. 

DELFINGEN’s mission is to protect it by providing even more innovative solutions and with more added value.
