Brake Engineering teams up with Tim Shaw to showcase the art of remanufacturing calipers

Tuesday 11 Feb 2025

Brake Engineering has partnered with renowned TV presenter Tim Shaw from Car SOS to release the first in a series of three engaging videos that delve into the intricate process of remanufacturing brake calipers.

 

Highlighting the importance of safety, sustainability and high-quality craftsmanship, this campaign seeks to educate the industry and drivers alike on the unparalleled value of remanufactured calipers.

 

The campaign centres around a set of Ford Scorpio Cosworth rear brake calipers, which Tim Shaw brought to Brake Engineering’s Wrexham Centre of Excellence for expert remanufacturing.

 

The videos capture every step of the process, showcasing how worn components are meticulously restored to perform as reliably as new.

This campaign is part of Brake Engineering’s commitment to highlighting the importance of prioritising remanufactured parts to reduce waste, minimise environmental impact and ensure vehicle safety.

 

Remanufacturing plays a pivotal role in sustainability. By reusing core materials rather than manufacturing entirely new components, the process significantly reduces waste and lowers the carbon footprint of replacement parts.

 

By remanufacturing at its Wrexham site, Brake Engineering, for example, saves 951 tons of CO2 emissions every year.

This not only benefits the environment but also supports a circular economy where resources are preserved and utilised efficiently.

 

Brake Engineering ensures that each remanufactured caliper meets or exceeds original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standards, delivering consistent quality and performance.

 

In addition to promoting sustainability and safety, the campaign addresses industry challenges such as the influx of low-quality imported components that can jeopardise vehicle performance.

 

Brake Engineering stands firm in its commitment to providing reliable solutions while maintaining high availability, ensuring workshops and distributors have access to trusted, high-performing parts when they need them most.
