What com interieur polska sp. z o.o. does

Com Interieur Polska Sp. z o.o. is a Polish manufacturer of plastic and composite components serving the automotive, bus, and rail vehicle industries, headquartered in Krapkowice and founded in 1999. The company produces fiber-reinforced composite parts using multiple process technologies including hand lamination, Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), Sheet Molding Compound (SMC), Vacuum Infusion (VI), injection molding, and P-DCPD (Dicyclopentadiene) thermoset casting, allowing it to address structural and interior components across a range of batch sizes. Effective August 2026, the company was acquired by HAPPICH GmbH, a member of the Pelzer Family Company, and now operates as HAPPICH Composites Sp. z o.o. within the broader HAPPICH Group.

Under HAPPICH ownership, the company sits within a 530-employee, family-controlled industrial group with a 6,000+ product portfolio serving 3,200+ active customers across transport (road, rail, marine), industrial machinery, and acoustic/thermal insulation end markets. The group runs manufacturing operations in Germany, Spain, the Czech Republic, Poland, and Turkey, and holds certifications including IATF 16949:2016, DIN EN ISO 9001:2015, and DIN EN ISO 14001:2015. HAPPICH Composites contributes composite process expertise that complements the group's profile, lock, sun protection, headliner, handrail, and acoustic product lines, with particular relevance for rail applications requiring DIN EN 45545-2:2016 fire compliance.

The business model is B2B hardware sales to vehicle manufacturers, equipment builders, and industrial customers, with pricing conducted via custom quotes based on specifications and volumes rather than list pricing. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales organized by European region, supplemented by trade show presence (e.g., Busworld Türkiye) and multilingual product catalogs. Revenue mechanics are driven by OEM program awards, recurring replacement demand, and the group's ability to bundle components and systems as a single-source supplier, with the recent HAPPICH acquisition adding distribution leverage and cross-selling potential for composite parts into adjacent product lines.

Broad incumbents

• Adient: Global leader in automotive seating and interior systems, spun off from Johnson Controls. Comparable in automotive interior component manufacturing with similar commercial vehicle exposure, though more focused on seating than broader trim and composites.
• Magna International: Diversified global Tier 1 automotive supplier with significant composites capability through its Body Exteriors & Structures and Seating segments. Larger and more diversified than HAPPICH Composites but competes on interior composite components for vehicle OEMs.
• SGL Carbon: German specialist in carbon-based materials including carbon fiber composites for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications. Comparable in advanced composite materials manufacturing for automotive lightweighting, though broader in end markets.

Direct peers

• Plastic Omnium: Leading global manufacturer of plastic and composite automotive components for exterior and structural applications. Direct peer for CIP Polska / HAPPICH Composites in plastic automotive parts manufacturing with overlapping OEM customer base.
