German know-how at its best

Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG supplies the independent aftermarket with quality-optimised automotive spare parts. Our specialty: HD parts. The modified and optimised components are developed by our team of engineers at our Hamburg base. Based on market research, recall statistics or information from partners at the German technical inspection organisation TÜV and workshops, our engineers analyse wear-prone OE components. They then weed out the weak points by developing technically sophisticated solutions. And of course other MEYLE parts profit from the findings.

The making of MEYLE-HD parts

When developing MEYLE-HD spare parts engineers have only one goal in mind: creating automotive parts which top the original in terms of durability and service life. To achieve this goal they analyse the weak points of OE components and subsequently correct these, for example by using higher-grade materials or by a more robust part design.

 

In this way we ensure MEYLE parts deploy cutting-edge technologies, which is not always the case with many original equipment parts due to tight engineering cycles and cost and material restraints.

It goes without saying that our engineers always take account of the overall system of the assembly group to ensure that technical improvements of one component do not entail premature failure of another.
