The guests went to the Remsa plant that is located in Olvega city. Here is the production of pads for European cars.
Remsa Truck Pad Supporting Plate
The products go through a complete production cycle at the plant, and supporting plates for pads are also made here. All Remsa plants in Spain are focused on producing pads for European cars, and these parts are 100% made in Spain.
The line for the production of metal frames is fully automatic, and for the production of pads — semi-automatic, and here the press operator is partially involved in the work. About 11 types of dry friction mixtures are used for the production of pads, which are selected depending on the purpose and type of the pads.
The guests saw all production cycles, including for several well-known European brands. Here, at the plant, a number of bench tests of pads are carried out in accordance with international standards and selectively checked pads from each batch. In addition to tests for braking performance in different operating conditions, the pads are checked for noise and tested on real trucks.
During the excursion around the plant
The range of produced pads depends on the country where the plant is located. Remsa plants in Spain produce pads for cars in the European market, at plant in Mexico — for the American one, and at plant in China — respectively for the Asian market. The volume of production is impressive: over a year, 19 000 000 pads are produced at factories in Spain.

In Spain the guests also watched the fiery flamenco show and had supper at Madrid's oldest restaurant, which was opened in 1642. In the ancient capital of Spain — Toledo — the guests visited one of the country's main Catholic churches — St. Mary's Cathedral. And on the last day of their stay in Spain, they went karting.
