NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd was established in 1975 and is now located in purpose built premises in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. Within the company there are two main Divisions; NGK Spark Plugs responsible for spark plugs and related products, and NTK Technical Ceramics responsible for semi conductors, electronic components, ceramic cutting tools and fine ceramics. NGK has established a world-leading reputation for quality and innovation in all its product areas and is committed to maintaining this excellence. NGK is a leading manufacturer of spark plugs, spark plug covers, glow plugs and Lambda sensors. As a world leading OE supplier to the major car manufacturers we are committed to providing components designed to meet their specific requirements. As a result NGK is often consulted at the initial stages of the engine design process, with our designers and engineers working alongside the manufacturers own development teams. Each and every product manufactured by NGK is designed to meet the most rigorous standards, thereby delivering reliability and consistent performance under all conditions. They each play a major role in ensuring optimum efficiency, and therefore make a significant contribution in the reduction of emissions. NGK Spark Plugs are widely used across all forms of motor sport including Formula 1, Touring Cars, Rally Cars and Motorcycle Racing. The high compression ratios and engine speeds developed in high performance racing engines require spark plugs, which can withstand overheating and mechanical shock. NGK has a range of plug types capable of withstanding these severe conditions, many using precious metals such as platinum or gold/palladium. |
