NRS Leads NUCAP into the Global Marketplace

In the first 18 months of its introduction to the industry, NRS achieved a staggering level of implementation for a new brake system technology – 30,000,000 Units. Now, the combination of global licensing and adoption of NRS into North American and Japanese O.E. Programs is pushing NRS to Global Solution status.

NRS Manufacturing Licensed to Manufacturers in Europe and Japan

Global demand for NRS has added a new dimension to NUCAP – Technology Licensing. The completion of NRS Manufacturing Licensing Agreements with SERA Company Ltd. of Japan and Obtec A/S of Denmark, allows European and Asian Brake Friction and System Manufacturers access to “local” NRS production sites.

Within these markets, NRS is in the process of adoption into a broader range of programs. For Obtec in particular, program conversion has been rapid, with over 80% of the products manufactured now utilizing NRS.
