Martinrea International Inc. (TSX : MRE), a diversified and global
automotive supplier engaged in the design, development and
manufacturing of highly engineered, value-added Lightweight
Structures and Propulsion Systems, has been named a 2022 Automotive
News Pace Awards finalist for its brake lines with
graphene-reinforced materials.
Graphene is a 2-Dimensional Nanomaterial that is
stronger than steel and offers benefits in flexibility, durability,
and weight. Martinrea recognized the potential of graphene and
developed this revolutionary product called GrapheneGuard™, a
patented, propriety coating made by incorporating graphene into
nylon. Martinrea's Brake Lines with GrapheneGuard™ marks the first
use of graphene in an automotive brake line application and
demonstrates the significant benefits of the material, including up
to a 25% weight savings, industry-leading abrasion protection, and
improved strength and chemical resistance.
Martinrea has invested significantly in graphene
initiatives, and is the largest shareholder of NanoXplore Inc., the
largest producer of graphene in the world.
Judged by an independent panel of technologists,
the PACE Awards are recognized worldwide as the industry benchmark
for superior innovation, technological advancement, and business
performance.
“We are honoured to be recognized by Automotive
News for our Brake Lines with GrapheneGuard™,” said Pat D’Eramo,
President and Chief Executive Officer. “Being named a finalist
reflects our commitment to developing innovative solutions, as well
as delivering the highest quality products to meet our customers'
needs.”
The Automotive News PACE Awards will be announced
at a ceremony on Monday, September 19, 2022.
