What ERA Benelux does
ERA Benelux NV is a Belgian automotive parts remanufacturer founded in 2001 and headquartered in Gullegem, Belgium. The company disassembles, cleans, replaces worn components with original spare parts, and reassembles automotive subsystems including steering racks (hydraulic and electric), steering pumps, EHPS pumps, EPS steering columns, driveshafts and CV joints, brake calipers (including electric variants), ignition distributors, alternators, starters, and air conditioning compressors. All products are remanufactured to Original Equipment (O.E.) standards under what the company describes as severe process controls and constant product development. The catalog comprises 15,329 references with 8,280 actively stocked, across nine product categories.
The business model is B2B-only: ERA Benelux sells exclusively through recognized automotive parts retailers (magasins de pièces auto renommés / erkende automaterialenzaken) in Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Germany, with no direct-to-consumer channel. Ordering is digitized through an E-Shop hosted on the TecAlliance platform, with real-time stock visibility and a separate public catalog for non-customers. For larger accounts, the company supports TecCom ERP-to-ERP integration so that retailer purchasing systems can place orders directly. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers receive quotes upon login or via direct contact.
Geographically, ERA Benelux serves the Benelux region from its Gullegem facility and extended into Germany via the 2014-founded ERA Benelux Deutschland GmbH subsidiary. The company holds TecDoc Certified Data Supplier status (five consecutive years as of 2011) and is a regular exhibitor at ReMaTec. The business is privately held, with Aldingha BVBA referenced as the copyright holder on the corporate site, and has 51-100 employees.
