Default Lowest dust ceramic brake pads?

So about 2 years ago I bought a set of ceramic pads for my truck from Detroit Axle, and they absolutely coat my front wheels in brake dust. What is out there that doesn't produce so much dust?

My stock setup is pretty low in dust.

PowerStop pads work well with little dust. You can use them with any brand of rotor.

Motorcraft original pads are very low dust, and the Powerstop Z36s I have on the rear of my truck seem to be comparable in terms of dust. The Carquest Professional Platinums advertise to be virtually dust free, but I've got no experience with them.

AVOID Napa Premium and Proselect pads. They were the dirtiest brakes I ever had.

Another for PowerStop.
Had a 2018 392 Charger with Brembo brakes...bad dust everyday. Changed pads...worked like a charm.

I had a set of Wagner Ceramic pads on the rear of a 2006 F150. No observable dust, but they were used up after about 25K miles.

Agree. I've probably noticed less brake dust on my current F150's wheels than any previous vehicle.
