This business is expected to add more than $5 million to Haldex Brake Systems’ annual sales volume in North America.

“Gaining this business with a world leader in the transportation industry is a significant achievement and strengthens our own position as a leading global supplier of braking systems and components,” said Haldex Brake Systems president Chuck Kleinhagen.
