The first formulation
Founded in Stuttgart.
Our story
An international engineering network united by one standard.
The origin
In 1987, a small group of engineers began asking how friction materials could offer stronger control with less noise, wear, and environmental cost.
Their answer was not one formula. It was a way of working: understand the complete braking event, test without shortcuts, and refine every layer as part of one system.
“The best braking technology is the confidence a driver never has to think about.”
