With the rich experience of new members and continuous research and development, Axesta Inc. has successfully developed many high-performance and durable products. Axesta Inc. owns two brands: TOMEI and R.S.E. In the Americas and Europe, it operates as TOMEI “The Engine Specialist,” while R.S.E. “Real Speed ​​Engineering” targets the Asian and Oceanian markets.
