Nan Hoang Traffic Instrument Co., Ltd., the largest supplier of friction-material products in Taiwan, has won ISO9002, QS9000, and ISO14001 certifications since 1996 and become an ISO/TS 16949 approved maker since 2003. The company has recently inaugurated a brand-new production facility in southern Taiwan's Tainan Technology Industry Park.

Established in 1961, Nan Hoang has developed about 7,000 kinds of products that are popular with global auto/motorcycle makers, first-tier parts brands, and aftermarket (AM) parts customers; while meeting quality certifications as ECE R90, TUV as well as test standards including SAE, JASO, DIN, CNS make the friction products especially sought-after in high-performance markets.

Fred Cheng, president of Nan Hoang, launched his company's “YangPo” own-brand in the second quarter of 2011, indicating a move to advance business, also announcing several ambitious projects for the company's 50th anniversary this year, an event to be celebrated with an understated party.

Nan Hoang will upgrade technical level in products, despite leading global counterparts. The maker will soon begin supplying high-end brake pads to a Japanese customer for use in wind generators, with the agreement marking a milestone for Nan Hoang in high-tech applications, says Cheng.

The maker will also supply top-end frictional materials for high-speed train and mass rapid transit (MRT) trains, and is developing samples that are expected to soon pass all needed certifications.

Nan Hoang is scheduled to produce more friction parts for super sports cars, racers to upgrade its market position.

The company is exploring supply chains of global makers of passenger cars, trucks, agricultural machines, motorcycles and bicycles, having signed an agreement with an American automaker and sent sample for approval.

Nan Hoang also aims to be a green manufacturer, having been using eco-friendly formula in production and is working on advanced formula to meet the non-copper requirement from major American automakers.

The maker will also set up a new factory next to its existing plant, which was inaugurated two years ago but already fully utilized.

Finally between 2011 and 2013, Nan Hoang will steadily install the world's most advanced testing and inspection equipment for automotive friction materials and parts.
