Leadership in Engineering.
The largest production plant for friction materials and this global player's European development center are located at Glinde near Hamburg. 120 Employees work in this research centre and ensure that the legacy of technological leadership is maintained. Highly specialized chemical- and process engineers are continually developing new products and processes – for example hybrid brake pads.
New: hardwearing Jurid® hybrid brake pads with high friction value
This generation of hybrid brake pads has been developed by Honeywell Friction Materials. It combines the best properties of the powerful low-met brake pads with the comfort-oriented qualities of the NAO brake pads. Hybrid brake pads therefore have both: high friction values and stable performance when subjected to extreme conditions plus very good comfort and long service life. Hybrid brake pads also generate very little dust that is then likely to settle on the rims – especially enjoying those enthusiasts that love decorative light alloy rims.
Innovation already available in the American Market
These new brake pads are already being successfully supplied to the OEMs. For example in the VW Tiguan and BMW 7 series available in the American Market. In Europe too, comfort and being able to prevent the build-up of brake dust are becoming increasingly important, thereby making the hybrid brake pads an attractive option for buyers. Special materials are processed for Jurid hybrid brake pads, which makes them more expensive than standard brake pads. Honeywell strives to keep improving the performance characteristics of the hybrid brake pads in order to offer them on the aftermarket at competitive prices.
