Monthisa is a family company whose origins date back to 1958 when Don Francisco Montoro Gil, grandfather of the current President of Monthisa, founded FRAYMON S.A.E., from a small car repair shop located in Calle Proclamación in Murcia.
The activity of FRAYMON S.A.E. was the manufacture and sale of clutches and friction brakes for the automotive industry, both for passenger cars and for industrial vehicles and trucks.
FRAYMON was the licensee in Spain of the most important clutch manufacturers in the world: Borg Warner Int. Corporation in the United States; Borg and Beck in the United Kingdom; Fichtel und Sachs in Germany and S.A.F. Du Ferodo in France, with which the company FERODO ESPAÑOLA S.A. was subsequently incorporated.
With a production of three million clutches per year, FRAYMON became Spain’s leading manufacturer of clutches for the automotive industry.
