The braking systems manufactured in Budapest are installed in rail vehicles around the world. They can be found, for example, in high-speed trains in Europe and Asia, as well as in subway cars and trams in cities from Melbourne to Paris and Budapest.

By continuously developing and improving its competencies, products and services, the Hungarian branch of Knorr-Bremse has been on the rise for the last twenty years. Growth gained momentum in 2016 when an investment of EUR 17 million was made to expand operations and increase production output at the Budapest plant, making Knorr-Bremse Budapest the Group’s largest railway brake manufacturing location. Since 2017, Knorr-Bremse Budapest has also operated an advanced vocational training center, where 60 students per year are prepared to meet global market requirements and deal with the latest industry trends.

Along with the stability, security and innovation that are the hallmarks of the Knorr-Bremse Budapest plant, these achievements led the Figyelő TOP200 expert jury to name Knorr-Bremse Budapest its “Company of the Year” for 2019. In sum, Knorr-Bremse Budapest is a shining example of the excellent German-Hungarian relations in the fields of engineering, science and commerce. Professionals of both nationalities co-create products and solutions for the global market, thereby enhancing the competitiveness of the Hungarian economy.
