Business
KB Autosys Co., Ltd. is a South Korea-based automotive component manufacturer primarily engaged in the development, engineering, and production of brake friction materials and braking systems for passenger and commercial vehicles. The company's product portfolio includes front disc brake pads engineered for thermal stability and deceleration efficiency; rear disc brake pads integrated with standard mechanical and Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) systems; commercial and passenger drum brake linings designed for wear resistance and heavy thermal loads; complete brake shoe assemblies; copper-free and non-asbestos organic (NAO) eco-friendly friction materials; and specialized low-Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) brake formulations designed for electric, hybrid, and internal combustion engine platforms. KB Autosys supplies products to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), Tier-1 automotive module suppliers, and global automotive aftermarket networks, serving key automotive clients such as Hyundai Motor Company, Kia Corporation, and General Motors. The company conducts international business operations through overseas subsidiaries and manufacturing facilities, including KB Autosys Manufacturing America, Inc. in the United States, KB Autosys India Private Limited in India, and production units in China, alongside its primary domestic manufacturing and research facilities in South Korea. Established in 1985 as Korea Beral Co., Ltd., the company adopted the name KB Autosys Co., Ltd. in 2010 and is headquartered in Asan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea. In recent developments, KB Autosys has expanded its global production footprint by operationalizing its USD 38 million advanced manufacturing facility in Meriwether County, Georgia, United States, dedicated to supplying localized brake pad and lining components directly to North American automotive assembly plants. In addition, the company has expanded its strategic focus on the electric vehicle sector by engineering and commercializing specialized, low-dust, high-torque friction materials tailored to the increased vehicle mass, regenerative braking dynamics, and stringent acoustic specifications of electrified mobility platforms.
