Automotive airbags and seatbelts are essential safety components in vehicles, engineered to safeguard occupants during collisions. Airbags inflate rapidly upon impact to mitigate and absorb the force, while seatbelts secure occupants in place to prevent them from being thrown forward. Together, these features significantly enhance passenger safety by reducing injuries in accidents.

The primary types of automotive airbags and seatbelts include frontal airbags, knee airbags, and side or curtain airbags. Frontal airbags are specifically designed to protect occupants during frontal collisions, augmenting the effectiveness of seatbelts by providing additional cushioning and protection. Seatbelt options range from 2-point and 3-point configurations to 5-point harnesses, catering to various vehicle types such as passenger cars, light commercial vehicles (LCVs), and heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs). These safety components are distributed through diverse sales channels, including original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and the aftermarket.
