3 One-Stop Shopping BORG Automotive has the widest product programme within the European automotive aftermarket. With our wide and diverse range of brands, we can meet your demands for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and marine, agricultural, construction and industrial applications. When working with BORG Automotive, you only require one supplier to cover and expand your entire range.

To handle your needs effectively, we provide the best print and online-based catalogue solutions on the market, including TecDoc.

4 Our Products At BORG Automotive, we work hard to expand our product portfolio and serve the European automotive aftermarket. We pride ourselves in offering the highest quality and widest-ranging product programme marketed through all the European aftermarket channels, covering up to 95% of the European car park. We utilise the strengths of a multiple brand strategy, each with its own unique heritage and position in the market. This equips us with a strong presence in all segments of the automotive aftermarket. BORG Automotive 60 years ago, faulty units were regarded as scrap and shredded. Materials were separated as shredder-fluff and put into landfill with other household appliances, which endangered and polluted local groundwater and the atmosphere. Fortunately, a lot has changed over the last 30 years; BORG Automotive has been a major force in the European remanufacturing industry for the benefit of a cleaner environment. We are currently a European leader in R&D, sales and production of remanufactured automotive parts. Our highly skilled engineers are also able to reprogram our products to avoid engine control unit compatibility problems. With a catalogue of over 10,000 unique parts, we make it easy for our customers to find exactly what they need.

7 Quality ISO 9001:2008 & 14001:2004 certification 100% visual inspection on all components Full two-year warranty on all products Fast and user-friendly installation Quality means everything to us. Our production process is certified in accordance with ISO 9001:2008 and 14001:2004, and our products are individually tested to meet OE standards, including comprehensive electrical and mechanical durability testing and 100% visual inspection. After complete dismantling, all parts are measured and checked. Intact parts are cleaned, lacquered and galvanised, and any faulty parts are replaced by new or remanufactured parts. All of this is supported by a full two-year warranty on all of our products. To ensure fast and convenient installation, our units come supplied with all necessary connectors. We are focused on improving quality and efficiency, and we therefore strive to maintain and improve our high standards at all times.

8 App Manuals To make it easier for end users to install and carry out core returns of our products, we are in the process of developing a collection of smartphone and tablet app-based manuals. Innovation As remanufacturing is a far more complex process than new production, unique technical skills are required. At BORG Automotive, we have developed a unique skills development program for all our employees that ensures consistent, high-quality products, as well as highly motivated and dedicated employees. By utilising the latest tools and test equipment in every step of our remanufacturing process, we are leading our quest for continuous improvement. Our comprehensive research and development programme also keeps us on the cutting edge of emerging technologies in the automotive aftermarket, such as the latest advancements within hybrid technologies and mechatronics.

9 Logistics We have tailored our production to ensure timely delivery of high volume orders as well as fast delivery of rare units. Every order is planned and expedited individually, so you don t have to wait for the right batch. In close partnership with our customers, we create the logistical conditions to match market demand for stock, frequency and returns. Due to our exceptionally strong presence in Europe, we are able to provide logistical solutions that guarantee high quality delivery. We have also developed a produce-to-order concept that, supported by our unique core division, ensures this high level of delivery without compromising the high quality and outstanding finish of our products.

10 Environment By choosing a remanufactured product, your organisation is taking an important step towards meeting future demands regarding environmental responsibility. By choosing BORG Automotive, your organisation will be playing an active role in reducing global CO2 levels. Remanufacturing reduces the need for the production of new parts, which in turn reduces the strain on the environment and the requirement for raw materials. Scientific studies from the UK show that the energy consumption of remanufacturing processes is up to 85% lower than that of OEM production*. Therefore, remanufacturing reduces costs, while maintaining quality and securing the environment. As there is no compromise in performance and quality, this is good business and is in line with the highest standards for corporate social responsibility. *Remanufacturing and Product Design, Gray & Charter
