Trimat manufacture a range of organic and semi-metallic press molded friction products. The range is non-asbestos and covers a wide selection of performance characteristics from low coefficient products for tensioning devices, through to high friction, heavy duty materials used in aircraft braking systems.

The entire production process from chemical mixing to pressing and CNC machining is conducted in-house at our UK factory. The control of our ISO 9001:2015 manufacturing system ensures we provide high quality materials which demonstrate consistently impressive strength and durability.

Established upon the principles of Lean manufacturing and the 5S standard, Trimat is recognised for operating a well organised, clean and productive facility, synonymous with high quality products and services. Fundamental to our quality program is employee development throughout the business.

Products can be supplied in 600 x 600mm sheet form between 2-60mm thick, or alternatively materials can be manufactured to customer drawing as a finished brake component.
