STOCKHOLM Haldex and Master Sistemas Automotivos Limitada have signed a long-term collaboration agreement in which the companies plan to partner in the manufacturing, sales and technical support of commercial vehicle trailer anti-lock systems for pneumatic brakes (Trailer ABS) for the Brazilian market.
In Brazil, new legislation will be introduced starting in 2013 requiring all new trailers to be 100 percent equipped with ABS systems by 2014. The annual trailer production volume in Brazil amounts to 60,000 vehicles.
By sharing Haldex premium ABS products and Master’s premium product line and highly recognized customer service and training network, the two companies say the partnership illustrates their shared desire to offer the customers the highest quality and excellence in customer service.
