Who is GGB
Our passion fuels groundbreaking advancements that enhance human potential. By collaborating closely from the early design stages, we push beyond conventional surface engineering solutions, developing tailored, high-performance technologies. Built on a foundation of trust, determination, and respect, we cultivate strong partnerships that inspire creativity, foster collaboration, and deliver exceptional results.
Reliable. Efficient. Designed to Last.
Designing commercial vehicles involves navigating a complex landscape of technical, regulatory and economic demands. Engineers face constant pressure to innovate without compromising cost or reliability, from durability under heavy loads to strict emissions standards and the rising shift to electric and hybrid drivetrains.
At GGB, we support design engineers by providing high-performance, cost-effective plain bearing and surface coating solutions that address the toughest challenges in the development of commercial vehicles, maximizing uptime, efficiency, and long-term value.
Fuel economy is critical for fleet profitability. GGB’s low-friction, self-lubricating bearings and coatings reduce mechanical drag in steering, suspension, and drivetrain systems, thereby improving fuel efficiency and reducing energy loss. Extended service intervals also minimize downtime and maintenance costs.
Commercial vehicles operate under constant stress. GGB bearings are built for high-load environments, providing reliable load distribution and resistance to fatigue to ensure long-lasting performance under demanding conditions.
GGB solutions are designed for easy installation, tight tolerances, and reduced edge loading. Designed to handle misalignment and minimize wear, our bearings streamline vehicle assembly and cut service labor time.
From extreme heat and cold to corrosive road salt and chemicals, GGB materials are designed to perform. Our corrosion-resistant and self-lubricating components protect critical systems—even in the event of lubrication failure.
With stricter environmental regulations, OEMs need smarter materials. GGB bearings and coatings are produced locally for local demand and are RoHS/ELV compliant. This helps to reduce emissions and improve energy efficiency.
Driver comfort affects safety and efficiency. GGB bearings reduce noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), enabling smoother rides, better handling, and less fatigue—critical for long-distance and heavy-duty operations.
Whether you're developing next-generation EV commercial trucks or refining internal combustion platforms, GGB delivers the materials science and engineering expertise to help you succeed. Our tribological solutions keep vehicles moving—longer, smoother, and more efficiently.
