Brembo Brakes India has announced the set-up of a new manufacturing plant in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The construction of the new plant began on 3rd of April 2018. It is a part of Brembo's 2018 investment plan of around 9 million Euros.
Brembo has stated that they are going to complete the construction of the new plant within a year. The company has also announced the expansion of its existing Chakan and Manesar facilities as well. This will allow the manufacturer to consolidate the quality of ByBre brand products by a technical collaboration with OEMs in the Chennai region.
The move comes as a result of the introduction of new safety regulations for two-wheelers by the Indian government, which requires higher performance braking systems. As per the Indian government's new safety regulations, all-new two-wheelers with an engine displacement below 125 cc will need to have combined braking systems (CBS) as standard. Similarly, two-wheeler with an engine larger than 125 cc will need to get ABS as standard fitment. The existence of these braking systems can prove to be a life-saver in emergency braking situations.
Motorcycle braking systems manufacturer, Brembo Brakes India has been supplying braking systems to a host of OEMs for motorcycles. They operate in India under two brand names.
