A headliner is the inside cover of the ceiling in an automotive. It hides the metal, hardware, and wires, while improving the aesthetics of the vehicle. It also provides insulation, thus reducing noise and heat. Additionally, it improves the acoustics inside a vehicle. A headliner protects the occupants in the vehicle from injuries caused by a direct collision or in the event of an accident.

An automotive headliner comprises numerous layers of materials such as polyurethane, which is either glued or sprayed in the form of a foam onto the metal roof of the vehicle. The foam provides added cushioning, making it soft to touch and reducing heat and wind noise. The last layer of the headliner, which is visible, is often a fabric or vinyl.

Less costly vehicles are affixed with inexpensive materials, while the high-end vehicles can sport leather, sued, and other costly materials. This layer is often glued to the headliner and held in place using molding, screws, lights, and sun visors.

Vehicle manufacturing companies and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) offer headliners in an array of colors and materials, which complement the vehicle. Users can replace the headliners when they are worn out, dirty, or as per their wish. Automakers are engaged in R&D to improve the aesthetics of the vehicle; thus they are constantly striving to design comfortable and ergonomic vehicle interiors.

Thus, they are developing add-on features such as sensors, advanced technology, 3D laminated glass, and state-of-the-art materials to enhance customer experience.  OEMs are also developing different types of headliners with integrated audio system slots and vents to meet customers' need for cabin comfort and convenience.
