Refurbishing programme for brake calipers
The refurbishing programme for brake calipers is a highlight of the trade fair presentation by SAF-HOLLAND and Haldex. Old components are professionally refurbished so they can have a second life. This process saves precious resources and significantly reduces CO2 emissions. In times of increasingly stringent environmental regulations and a growing awareness for sustainability, this programme constitutes an important step towards more eco-friendly mobility.
SH I.Q. Portal – smart and efficient
The SH I.Q. portal is another focus at the trade fair: The comprehensive online platform bundles a number of digital services from SAF-HOLLAND – “I.Q.” for “intelligent quality”. Among other things, the portal comprises the electronic Parts on Demand (PoD) spare parts catalogue. It features a smart search function that helps user to quickly and efficiently find the required data, documents and information. Workshops and fleet operators benefit from substantial time savings and optimised spare parts supply.

SAF-HOLLAND uses near-field communication (NFC) technology for fast and reliable identification of spare parts. With NFC chips integrated into the products, spare parts can be read out with a smartphone or tablet with NFC capability in just a few seconds. This facilitates the work of spare part sellers, fleet managers and workshops, minimises errors and reduces downtime of the vehicles.
