In accordance with the Drive NTN 100 plan and the desire of the NTN Group to put the emphasis on innovation and diversification, in particular in Green Business over FY2019, the PRODUCT INNOVATION team initiated a promising collaboration with a French start-up in the field of hydro electricity. This collaboration has an ambitious objective: to become a recognised partner in 2 years in the supply of 100% ceramic bearings destined to fit micro-turbines for drinking water pipes. This is a great opportunity to broaden the field of applications that ceramic materials can invest!

NTN EUROPE (former NTN SNR) is a world leader for bearings, constant-velocity joints, linear modules, distribution rollers, suspension parts, and associated training and services.
