Beltline Up

Modular, Flexible, and Cost Effective: Beltline-Up Solutions from Johnson Controls

We invented and are the leading manufacturer of vehicle overhead systems and modules, including sun visors, grab handles, overhead consoles, and headliners.

The desire of consumers to personalize their vehicles and affect the design of the automotive interior has taken on an even greater significance. As a result, top functionality and premium aesthetics in the car’s overhead have grown rapidly. That’s why we set the highest quality standards in developing beltline-up solutions. It’s why we take auto maker requirements into consideration, while never losing sight of the consumer. And it’s why we continue to invent clever and useful solutions. Our new tucked-edge technology for sun visors is a good example of these facts. Like our back-injection molded textile pillar trim, it generates higher craftsmanship at a very cost-effective level.

Millions of complete overhead systems, manufactured for all segments of the automotive industry, leave our worldwide plants every year – just in time.

Our overhead systems practically invented the opportunity for new storage and information delivery options. Our unique RailPort™ Overhead Storage System gives consumers an entirely new way to look at their vehicles’ convenience features. Specialized modules available from a wide range of licensed brand-name manufacturers provide choices that range from entertainment to storage and convenience.

Another important capability for Johnson Controls is in headliners and pillar trim constructed from the industry's broadest range of composites. They harmonize with our customers' many different brands in every market segment.
