PAGID’S PRODUCTION EXCELLENCE HIGHLIGHTED IN NEW VIDEO

Pagid has created a new video highlighting the manufacturing excellence that goes into making every one of its brake pads.

The video, which can be found below, shows the stringent quality processes that are present at each stage of the manufacturing journey, from the receipt of raw materials, through production, quality control and testing, and finally to assembly and despatch to UK workshops.

TMD Friction manufactures over one million-brake friction products across its world-class manufacturing locations in Europe every single day – and invests €30m in R&D annually. Every friction formulation is road tested for 300,000km with its own fleet of test cars, and 1,000 hours on a dynamometer, to ensure superior quality.

The production of the video follows recent customer visits to Pagid’s manufacturing locations at TMD Friction’s state-of-the-art facilities in Essen and Leverkusen, in Germany.

Pagid is an OE brand of TMD Friction, and part of the Nisshinbo Group, the world’s largest manufacturer of brake friction and a global partner to the automotive industry.

Phil Woodcock, UK Key Account Manager for Pagid, said: “This film provides a behind-the-scenes look at the rigorous processes involved in making Pagid brakes and illustrates the exacting standards that are inherent at every stage of production.

“This video also demonstrates that Pagid produces its own brake pads at its own manufacturing facilities across Europe, unlike many of our competitors.

“As the F1RST choice braking brand for UK workshops, Pagid is committed to delivering F1RST class product quality and F1RST rate manufacturing excellence to the UK aftermarket.”

Every Pagid brake pad and disc comes with a market-leading 25,000-mile or 25-month warranty, for complete peace-of-mind.
