Brembo unveils 100% recycled aluminium caliper
25 September 2025 
Brembo has officially launched its use of an alloy with 100% recycled aluminium in the production of its OE calipers — a key step forward in the company’s sustainability journey that follows more than five years of R&D.
Initially launched in 2020, the project set out to enhance the environmental profile of Brembo’s manufacturing processes.
However, an assessment of the full production cycle helped identify key areas where improvements could have the most impact.
After extensive testing, Brembo said it found the perfect match — an alloy made entirely from recycled aluminium. Using this alloy, CO₂ emissions across the entire lifecycle of the caliper can be reduced by 70% compared to conventional alloy.
CEO Daniele Schillaci said the adoption of recycled aluminium embodied Brembo’s commitment to innovation for sustainability.
Calipers using the new recycled alloy will feature an ‘ALU’ trademark logo. For calipers currently in production, Brembo will continue to use conventional aluminium until the end of their product life, while prioritizing the use of aluminium produced with renewable energy.
