History Of Industrial Friction Materials
Recent projects include exporting brake blocks for electric generators to Pakistan and India, plus a request to establish workshops in Saudi Arabia duplicating our successful operation in South Wales. As a result we have an enviable worldwide reputation for both quality and service. We are fortunate to name amongst our clients some of the world’s top ‘blue chip’ organisations, namely, Corus UK, Railtrack and National Power to name but a few.
Our highly equipped and modern workshops are complimented by trained staff and experienced management. We are able to meet the demands of the most difficult requests both quickly and effectively. Most relining of brakes is completed within 24 hours and despatch is made to all destinations via the courier network.
We also offer a van collection and delivery service across South Wales.
