Huairuifeng Brake Pad Factory Expands with Green, Quiet Series
Jinan, China – April 13, 2026 – Shandong Huairuifeng Machinery Co., Ltd., a professional brake pad factory known for high‑quality ceramic and low‑metallic friction materials, today announced the expansion of its production facility and the launch of a new environmentally friendly brake pad series – the GreenStop Eco line.
The announcement marks a major milestone for the brake pad factory, which has seen strong growth in export markets across Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia. The new series addresses two of the biggest complaints from drivers: brake dust and brake noise.
A cleaner stop – less dust, no copper
Conventional brake pads release fine black dust containing copper, zinc, and antimony. Rain washes this dust into rivers and oceans, where copper is highly toxic to aquatic life. The new GreenStop Eco series eliminates 100% of copper and reduces airborne particulate matter by approximately 70%.
"We spent two years developing a proprietary ceramic‑mineral blend that performs as well as traditional semi‑metallic pads but without the environmental harm," said Mr. Wang, General Manager of the brake pad factory. "Independent testing confirmed a stable friction coefficient of 0.43 across all temperature ranges – from cold starts to 500°C thermal cycles."
The GreenStop Eco pads also reduce rotor wear by 40% compared to conventional copper‑containing pads. This means longer rotor life and lower maintenance costs for fleet operators and individual drivers alike.
Quiet by engineering, not by luck
Brake noise is another major pain point. The new series features factory‑attached multi‑layer noise‑damping shims and precision‑cut chamfers. In dynamometer tests conducted at the brake pad factory, the GreenStop Eco pads produced noise below 68 decibels in 99% of braking scenarios – significantly quieter than the industry average of 75 dB.
"We didn't just add a cheap rubber shim," explained the head of R&D. "We analyzed the natural frequency of each backing plate design and tuned the shim material accordingly. It is a tailored solution, not a one‑size‑fits‑all."
Production expansion – meeting global demand
To support the new product line, the brake pad factory has completed a $1.8 million expansion. The investment includes:
· A new automated mixing station with zero cross‑contamination capability.
· Two additional 500‑ton hydraulic presses dedicated to the GreenStop line.
· A fully automated grinding and slotting line with laser measurement.
· Expanded warehouse capacity for 500,000 sets.
Annual production capacity now reaches 4.5 million brake pad sets. The brake pad factory has also hired 25 new technicians and quality control staff.
Global availability and distributor support
The GreenStop Eco series initially covers 30 popular vehicle applications, including:
· Toyota Camry, Corolla, RAV4
· Honda Civic, CR‑V, Accord
· Volkswagen Jetta, Passat, Tiguan
· Hyundai Elantra, Sonata, Tucson
· Tesla Model 3 and Model Y
· BYD Atto 3, Han, Seal
By the third quarter of 2026, the brake pad factory expects to expand coverage to over 80 models, including light trucks and SUVs.
Distributors who place pre‑orders before June 30, 2026, will receive a 10% launch discount and free sample kits. Private label packaging is also available for qualified partners.
See the factory – virtual tours now open
For international buyers who cannot travel to China, the brake pad factory now offers live virtual tours. Visitors can watch the entire production process – from raw material mixing to final dynamometer testing – via a secure online link. In‑person tours are also available by appointment.
Shandong Huairuifeng Machinery Co., Ltd. will showcase the GreenStop Eco series at Automechanika Frankfurt 2026 (Hall 4.2, Stand C15) and at the China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) in October 2026.
