Raybestos had their customers in mind when they decided to realign their brake product offerings into three distinct lines, Element3, Raybestos R-Line and Specialty, according to Kristin Grons, marketing manager for Brake Parts Inc (BPI).

The new product lines were showcased at the Raybestos booth during the recent Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX).

 “Each line is packaged in distinctly identified boxes to help professional technicians manage their inventories and to help them quickly select the right brake parts for each job,” said Grons. “Customers get the same great products in easy-to-understand family packaging, with no part number changes. With the new product lines, it’s The Best in Brakes made easy.”

The three distinct product categories allow:

• Straight-forward inventory that is easier to manage
• Simple and clear product families that easily work together, providing great performance for the entire braking system with less comebacks
• Increased sales by selling the complete braking system
• Kits for top applications- easy to market, easy to sell
