Ferodo- decades of service to the South African braking industry

Becoming a household brand takes time, dedication, expertise and a commitment to quality and service- factors that have been at the center of Ferobrake products since the brand was introduced to South Africa in 1965. As a supplier at that time of brake and clutch products and services to the mining, marine, marine, aviation, commercial transport, light passenger car and rail sectors, the company was soon a leader in its field.

More than five decades may have elapsed, but the Ferobrake brand stands firm today. A business that started in the 20th century has moved successfully into the new millennium. Although technology, processes and materials may have changed, the Ferobrake of today stands faithful to the qualities that have built its presence over more than 50 years of being a South African market leader.

Ferobrake began its life in Natal positioned near Ferodo its primary supplier, a proud relationship that still exists today.
