ADE appointed as Sachs’ strategic partner

Sachs, one of the world’s leading automotive component suppliers has signalled its intention to continue to develop as a major force in the Irish aftermarket with the appointment of ADE (Auto Diesel Electric) as a new strategic partner.

The new agreement means that ADE will now distribute the full Sachs product portfolio for cars and commercial vehicles. This includes: Sachs shock absorbers for cars and commercial vehicles, Sachs clutches for cars and commercial vehicles, and the Sachs Hi Drive range of steering and suspension products.
Commenting on the addition of the full Sachs range to ADE’s portfolio of OE component brands, Sales Manager Mark Lawless said: “We are delighted to be appointed as a new Sachs strategic partner for Ireland. It gives us access to a range of products which have an unrivalled global reputation and means we will be working with a company that shares our commitment to supplying quality products and providing a first class service.”

With over thirty five years industry experience, ADE is one of the most respected distributors in the Irish aftermarket. The company has built its success on providing good service and support, while concentrating on the highest quality products from original equipment suppliers. To this end ADE has assembled an impressive brand portfolio which includes: Mann+Hummel filters, Beru glow plugs and spark plugs, Britax lighting and electrical products, Padig brake components, SWF wiper equipment and Contitech power transmission products. By now offering the full Sachs range the company will be giving customers access to an even wider choice of original equipment components.

ADE and Sachs are currently planning a number of initiatives which will further develop the brand profile and maximise its development opportunities in Ireland. The company has already put in place an extensive stock of the full Sachs shock, Sachs clutch and Sachs Hi Drive ranges at its Dublin distribution centre. Comprehensive easy reference Sachs catalogues are also now available.
