Since 1968 Strongline Autoparts has been at the forefront of automotive component distribution in Ireland and today operates from a purpose built distribution facility in Tallaght, with an experienced and close knit team of employees.


One of the keys to success for Strongline has been its long term relationships with many OE manufacturers and other key suppliers. Alan Ward of Strongline comments, “We work in close partnership with our suppliers to ensure we offer the Irish aftermarket exactly what it needs. We also like to offer motor factors high quality unique brands that allow them to differentiate their own business.” 

One of the main stays of the Strongline range dating back to 1970 is CoopersFiaam. Today it is part of the Sogefi group which includes Purflux and is a major OE supplier.
