About Surface Transforms
Surface Transforms plc. (AIM:SCE)
develops and produces carbon‐ceramic material automotive brake
discs. The Company is the UK's only manufacturer of carbon‐ceramic
brake discs, and only one of two mainstream carbon ceramic brake
disc companies in the world, serving customers that include major
OEMs in the global automotive markets.
The Company utilises its proprietary
next generation Carbon Ceramic Technology to create lightweight
brake discs for high‐performance road and track applications for
both internal combustion engine and electric vehicles. While
competitor carbon‐ceramic brake discs use discontinuous chopped
carbon fibre, Surface Transforms interweaves continuous carbon
fibre to form a 3D matrix, producing a stronger and more durable
product with improved heat conductivity compared to competitor
products; this reduces the brake system operating temperature,
resulting in lighter and longer life components with superior brake
performance. These benefits are in addition to the benefits of all
carbon‐ceramic brake discs vs. iron brake discs: weight savings of
up to 70%, longer product life, consistent performance, reduced
brake pad dust and corrosion free.
The Company holds the London Stock
exchange's Green Economy Mark
