Carbon fibre brake disc maker Surface Transforms (ST) says revenues soared 240% in the first six months of 2022 to £2.9m.
In a trading update on Wednesday morning Knowsley-based ST said deliveries on a contract with Aston Martin was a key factor in the rise. It supplies brake discs for the limited edition Aston Martin Valkyrie which retails at £3m.
The company makes brake discs for a number of high performance cars. Customers have also included Porsche, Ferrari and Nissan. In April the firm said it was on course to make a profit after a “decade of development”.
