About BORG Automotive
BORG Automotive is a leading European supplier of automotive spare parts, offering both remanufactured and new products across a broad and competitive product portfolio.
We serve the automotive aftermarket through two dedicated sales channels: Independent Aftermarket (IAM) and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). This enables us to bring our expertise, products, and capabilities to customers across different parts of the automotive industry.
Remanufacturing has been at the heart of BORG Automotive for nearly 50 years and remains an important part of who we are. Across our European production facilities, we give automotive parts a new life through an industrial remanufacturing process, helping to reduce resource consumption and support a more circular automotive industry.
At the same time, our new product range strengthens and expands our overall offering, giving customers access to an even broader portfolio. In several product categories, we offer both new and remanufactured alternatives, providing greater choice and flexibility to meet different customer and market needs.
Today, BORG Automotive Group has more than 2,000 employees across our European production facilities, warehouses, and offices, with our headquarters in Silkeborg, Denmark.
Our journey over more than five decades has been marked by significant growth, and our ambitions remain high. As an employee at BORG Automotive, you become part of an international company in continuous development – a company where people are trusted to take responsibility, contribute ideas, and make an impact.
Our culture is built around five core values: Competence, Responsibility, Transparency, Interdependency, and Continuous Improvement. These values guide how we work together and reflect what our slogan stands for:
The most important part is you.
