About us

For over 60 years FLERTEX has been designing, producing and supplying friction materials for a wide range of applications.
Since 1987, all the railway, aeronautics and industrial activities of the parent company were grouped together under FLERTEX name, which ever since has continued its autonomous development.

FLERTEX SINTER, initially part of the Carbone Lorraine Group and formerly Faiveley Transport Gennevilliers, has been active in design, manufacture and supply of sintered metal friction materials for over 50 years.
This Gennevilliers-based site joined FLERTEX Group in February 2017 with all its production and testing facilities and complemented the Group with its high energy and high speed braking expertise.

FLERTEX Group is thus the only independent European friction material supplier with both organic and sinter technologies in its portfolio.
Active in over 25 countries, FLERTEX strengthens its international position by offering solutions to technical issues through innovative products.
