Friction Marketing Company (FMC) was started in the U.K. in 1991. With the specific goal of providing a product and service to a standard that had previously been unavailable to the Earthmoving and Mining aftermarket's.
Key personnel were drawn together from various backgrounds who collectively had many years of expertise covering:
Supply and maintenance of various items of heavy plant - principally Caterpillar at different sites around the world.
Supply and distribution of many products including clutch, brake and transmission plates.
Specification of new applications for both 'Dry' and 'Oil' immersed friction materials.
Original equipmen supply and ISO certification.

ABOUT FMC
The products were initially taken from GKN Sheepbridge in England - who manufactured under licence to Wellman Friction Products of the United States. As the range needed to be expanded, extensive investment was made in molds and tooling to provide the correct product, in the correct material and to the correct specification.

Today, all 'genuine FMC Parts' supplied in paper, bronze, graphite and steel, are either manufactured in our own facilities or from our tooling at key manufacturers around the world, who play a strategic role in the OEM supply of these materials to our market.
