At KYB, you’ll find a group of passionate people who believe in developing the very best and safest products. We believe that “good enough” does not cut it for products that affect vehicle control, stability, and stopping distance. Whether transporting your family, hauling heavy loads, or spirited driving, our products are built with a clear, considered purpose - delivering the best possible safety and driving experience. Our mission encompasses education and safety for shops, parts stores, and consumers; we believe that knowledge enables better decisions and more-performing vehicles.
Our facilities focus on sustainability practices that include reducing waste, lowering energy use, and increasing recycling. KYB has also partnered with our suppliers to improve labor practices worldwide. Our Franklin, Indiana, manufacturing facility was honored as the 2019 Industrial Plant of the Year for our efforts in wastewater management and environmental quality.
