Brakethrough technology

We use more than 150 compounds to manufacture our brake pads, while our competitors use approximately ten. Anyone replacing wearing parts and who sets store by the manufacturer’s original quality therefore reaches for products of the ATE brand. That’s why we also hold a leading position in the aftermarket.

As a specialist in braking systems, ATE has been setting standards in quality, innovation, and system compatibility for more than 100 years. Our expertise in research, manufacture and supply has made us the original equipment supplier of the world’s leading automobile suppliers. The same expertise makes as the favourite of the aftermarket too.

We actively contribute to the protection of the environment and resources through innovative products. Thus, some years ago we added re-manufactured brake calipers to our range. ATE Ceramic brake pads release hardly any dust into the environment, and the coating of brake discs and brake drums extends their service life noticeably.

We think of ourselves as partners to the automobile industry, and at the same time always have the wishes and needs of our end-customers in view. Our brake systems are also used in motor racing. Developments from product development in this high-performance field then in turn feed into series production, so that driving enjoyment and safety also come together in everyday driving.
