Adient designs, engineers, manufactures and supplies automotive seating systems and components to every major automaker globally. The company operates approximately 200 manufacturing and assembly plants across 29 countries, delivering millions of seats into vehicles annually. With nearly 40 years in the industry, Adient separated from Johnson Controls International in October 2016 to operate as an independent, publicly traded company.
The company's vertically integrated operations span research and development, engineering, design, manufacturing and assembly. Its product portfolio includes complete seating systems, seat structures, mechanisms, foam cushioning and trim materials. Adient maintains particular strength in just-in-time seating supply, operating seven joint ventures and approximately 38 manufacturing locations across 24 Chinese cities, positioning it as one of the largest suppliers of rapid-delivery seating in that market.
Adient employs more than 65,000 people worldwide. Its scale and established relationships with global automotive manufacturers reflect its position as a major component supplier in the industry.
