Tallano Technologies on Belgian TV (La Une, RTBF) in the program Un œil sur demain
Tallano Technologies took part in the program Un œil sur demain on La Une (RTBF, Belgium), in an episode focused on air pollution in the metro stations.
Excerpt from the article with the video report:
“In the metro, the main source of pollution comes from the mechanical brakes of the train cars. […] Several companies have developed brake pads or linings that capture pollution on the mechanical brakes of cars currently in operation.
‘We’ve added grooves inside the brake pad,’ explains Jean-Louis Juchault, president of Tallano Technologies. ‘When the pad presses against the disc during braking, the dust is channeled into the grooves. It is then drawn through a nozzle into a suction unit and ultimately retained in a filter.’”

Mulhouse Alsace Agglomération (m2A), Transdev, Tallano Technologies and IVECO BUS are launching a full-scale trial of a system for capturing fine particles from braking at source on urban buses. This French innovation, a world first in ecological transition, prepares the way for the entry into force of European Euro 7 regulations.
Tallano Technologies, a French clean-tech company focused on reducing particulate matter emitted by vehicle braking, and Nabtesco, a leading Japanese railway braking systems manufacturer, have reached a new milestone in their partnership.
