Brembo wins the 2024 A’ Design Award and Competition for the OCTYMA

Brembo has been awarded the 2024 A’ Design Award and Competition for its OCTYMA brake caliper, receiving the Platinum Award in the category of vehicle parts, auto accessories, and care products design.

This prestigious recognition, granted to truly exceptional, elegant, and magnificent designs, underlines the distinctive design of Brembo’s products and confirms the company’s unwavering commitment to bringing innovation to the mobility of tomorrow. It also highlights Brembo's unparalleled capacity to combine design and performance.

OCTYMA is an 8-piston aluminum brake caliper with a strong personality and innovative design for high-tech vehicles. It is a uniquely styled component whose name—from the Latin "octo," meaning eight—recalls the number of pistons. Furthermore, the number eight is a symbol of infinity and a constant flow of energy and power, representing balance and harmony.

Power and style: taut lines designed to infuse character; embossed piston details enhance the caliper's sporty components, and elegant lines make it the perfect fit for the Range Rover Sport SV, the British brand's most powerful and dynamic SUV ever.

OCTYMA's lines are intended to further reinforce the car's clean design and style, while at the same time amplifying its sporty personality. This enhances the brand's Modern Luxury codes: essential and refined design, exaltation of technical details, balance of proportions, and the search for refined and exclusive colors. OCTYMA also reflects the characteristics of Brembo's style and design, which evolve with technological innovation, helping to characterize each product and make the vehicle it equips unique.

From a technological point of view, the innovative cross arrangement of the pistons optimizes braking through better pressure distribution, significantly improving braking efficiency.
