HRC and Puig Hi-Tech Parts extend partnership
Spanish specialist Puig Hi-Tech Parts and HRC have agreed a two-year extension to their current collaboration. Puig and the Repsol Honda team have worked together since 2016 and in that time have taken three MotoGP World Championship titles together, including two Triple Crowns in 2016 and 2018.
Based in Barcelona, Puig is one of the largest accessory suppliers and has been designing and manufacturing motorcycle accessories since 1964, exporting to over 60 countries. Using 3D simulation technology during the development process allows for rapid experimentation to help meet the demands of racing, and the results speak for themselves – the company is internationally recognised for their dedication to maintaining high standards of design and manufacturing in their accessories for racers and road riders.
Tetsuhiro Kuwata, HRC's Director and General Manager of their Race Operations Management Division, said: “Puig Hi-Tech Parts are one of several important technical partners we have. When it comes to supplying parts for the Honda RC213V, we must be able to guarantee the best quality, and Puig are always able to deliver this. They supply what we need and fulfil our requests quickly. We at HRC are very pleased to continue working together.”
Puig Hi-Tech Parts' CEO Joan Puig (seen on the right with Manager of the HRC racing Team Alberto Puig) said: "Working closely with HRC across several seasons has provided us with an opportunity to test materials, design and manufacturing processes which we then apply to our accessories for road motorcycles. As a team, they demand only the best and also often need a quick production time, which we are able and pleased to meet. I am sure that we can continue to emulate the success we have already achieved together".
