The new Heavy Duty Organic Brake Pads with Shim represent a significant addition to the company's passenger vehicle product portfolio. The launch comes as the automotive industry continues to focus on improving safety standards and component reliability in the aftermarket segment.

Distribution will occur through Uno Minda's established network of authorized dealers, with availability confirmed across both online platforms and traditional retail outlets. The brake pads are compatible with a broad spectrum of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles currently operating in the Indian market.

The launch aligns with Uno Minda's strategy to strengthen its aftermarket presence while addressing the industry's growing focus on standardized, high-quality replacement parts. The company has emphasized that all components meet current automotive safety regulations and manufacturing standards.

Industry analysts note that this release could potentially influence aftermarket component quality standards, particularly in the brake system segment where reliability and performance are crucial factors for vehicle safety.
