Despite the difficult trading conditions, Strongline Autoparts enjoyed a very successful year with the Meyle brand in Ireland in 2020, as both factors and garages turned to German manufacturer to provide well engineered component solutions for many every day workshop issues.

Strongline were appointed sole distributor in Ireland in for Meyle in 2012 and since then the two companies have worked closely in developing market share and expanding what has become a loyal Meyle customer base.

Today the Hamburg based manufacturer produces more than 20,000 products across sectors such as braking, steering and suspension, filtration, cooling, fluids, electronics and many other core ranges. In addition the MEYLE-HD product range offers 1000 parts, which aims to provide better than OE solutions with deliberately enhanced components such as ball joints to ensure additional longevity over a standard MEYLE or OE manufactured parts, complete with a 4-year unlimited mileage warranty.

The MEYLE product range for Volkswagen vehicles, both old and new, is especially extensive and includes; everything from tie rods to control arms, not to mention coolant expansion tanks and water pumps and braking.

Alan Ward of Strongline Autoparts says, “MEYLE parts have become a backbone of our product range, with many customers specifically seeking out their high-quality solutions when it comes to quality replacement components. The MEYLE attention to detail, willingness to produce a part that exceeds OE specification and the fact they offer such great warranty cover, really does make them a brand to trust.”

To make the handling process on Meyle parts even easier, Strongline have introduced MEYLE short numbers. All MEYLE cartons with the new design are now labelled with a new short number in addition to the existing MEYLE number. The short numbers will also be successively added to all documents. The new packaging and MEYLE short number scheme is designed to streamline product processing efficiency and communication.
