Rassini enters the North American commercial truck market

Rassini, a Mexican industrial company that designs and manufactures suspension and brake components for the automotive industry, has expanded its suspension offerings to include leaf springs for the North American heavy commercial truck market.

The company will start off with a large account, having recently been awarded a contract from Ford Motor Co. to supply the front suspension technology for the new Ford F-650/F-750 Work Truck Series.

As a current leader in the South American truck industry, Rassini anticipates doubling its market share in North America by 2018. Rassini is a leading global producer of suspension components for light-duty vehicles and manages the design, engineering and manufacturing of leaf springs for most major automakers. The company currently supplies suspension components for each of the 10 best-selling light trucks in North America.

“We are excited to extend our suspension solutions to a new group of customers. We are working closely with them to ensure we meet their needs and earn their trust,” said Eugenio Madero, President of Rassini. “With extensive experience in the light truck market throughout North America and the heavy truck market in South America, we have worked hard to become an engineering leader in providing quality products and award-winning technology. Entering the commercial truck market in North America was a natural progression for us and we are already experiencing early success.”
