Global expansion TMD Friction is expanding its manufacturing footprint with new facilities in Spain (Valencia) and Europe, signaling growing capacity and potential for regional supply partnerships, service specialization, and OEM/IAM opportunities in Southern Europe.

Sustainability push Recent Eco-Friction series reducing copper content and dust emissions aligns with OEM sustainability goals and regulatory trends, offering a compelling angle to position TMD Friction as a partner for green brake solutions and compliance-driven procurement.

Digital and training leadership Initiatives like Virtual Brake Sets and Coursecheck Brilliance Badge demonstrate a commitment to digital product experiences and IAM education, opening doors for upsell of digital tooling, remote training, and enhanced aftermarket support services.

Strategic partnerships Consistent recognition as Supplier of the Year and collaborations with installers and aftermarket distributors indicate strong channel credibility, suggesting opportunities to deepen OEM/IAM contracts, cross-sell premium lines, and joint marketing programs.

Geographic and market depth Global network with presence across major regions and a broad portfolio (Textar, Mintex, Don, Pagid, Cobreq, Bendix, and racing lines) enables targeted sales plays to OEMs and IAMs in Europe, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific, leveraging regional demand for both standard and high-performance braking products.
