WABCO Holdings Inc. has signed an agreement to establish a new joint venture for vehicle control systems with FAW Jiefang Automotive Company to advance the safety and efficiency of commercial vehicles in China. This includes accelerating WABCO's single-piston air disc brake (ADB) technology leadership in China.

An innovative and market-leading commercial vehicle manufacturer, FAW Jiefang has built its world-class manufacturing capabilities, industry expertise and trusted-partner reputation over 60 years. Combined with WABCO's technology leadership and advanced manufacturing capabilities, the joint venture will commence with the manufacture of WABCO's advanced MAXXTM single-piston ADB from 2019.

With over six million single-piston ADB systems sold, WABCO is the long-established global market leader for this advanced technology. A major focus of the joint venture will be heavy-duty trucks given WABCO's mastery of single-piston ADB technology for 30,000 Nm applications which have a compact, lightweight design with fewer components and are proven to deliver the highest standards of safety, performance and reliability. Superbly engineered, WABCO's industry-leading, high-performance single-piston ADB technology is best suited for all types of commercial vehicles - light, medium and heavy-duty platforms.
