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 is granted to truly exceptional and elegant designs and underlines the distinctive design of Brembo’s products and unwavering commitment to bringing innovation to the mobility of tomorrow. 

OCTYMA is an 8-piston aluminium brake caliper with a strong personality for high-tech vehicles. It is a uniquely styled component whose name, from the Latin "octo," meaning eight, recalls the number of pistons. Furthermore, Brembo says the number eight is a symbol of infinity and a constant flow of energy and power, representing balance and harmony.
 
The design features taut lines designed to infuse character, while embossed piston details enhance the caliper's sporty components. This makes it the perfect fit for the Range Rover Sport SV, the Land Rover 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. 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.
