Correct identification
The right component, first time. We resolve OE numbers, competitor codes and chassis details to the exact part — because a wrong part is a vehicle off the road.
About Automint
Since 1990 we have concentrated on one thing: air springs, suspension and steering for the commercial-vehicle market. That long, deliberate focus is why our shelves are deep, our supply partners are trusted, and our staff can talk parts, fitment and application — not scripts.
Our story
Automint was founded to import and distribute the components the commercial-vehicle aftermarket relies on — and has stayed on that path ever since, deepening the range and widening the network as it grew.
1990
Automint Ltd is founded as a specialist importer and distributor of air springs, air suspension components and steering parts for the truck, trailer and bus market — partnering with Firestone from the outset.
Growth
Seeing a gap for a high-quality aftermarket damper, we added SABO shock absorbers — now over 500 part numbers — alongside SEM Lastik suspension and steering and Hydcab cab hydraulics.
2015
Automint became SABO's sole distributor for their air-spring range into the UK and Ireland, complementing the Firestone offering and broadening one of the deepest air-spring ranges available in these markets.
Today
More than 50 staff work across three operational locations in Huddersfield and Trafford Park, backed by a technical catalogue of 200,000+ cross references linking OE and competitor numbers to stock.

How we work
Our supply partners are recognised brands with an uncompromising approach to quality — complemented by technically trained staff who cover every part of the range.
The right component, first time. We resolve OE numbers, competitor codes and chassis details to the exact part — because a wrong part is a vehicle off the road.
Firestone, SABO, SEM Lastik and Hydcab — chosen for product quality, range and technical support, not for the length of their catalogue.
One of the deepest air-spring ranges in the UK and Ireland, over 500 SABO damper part numbers, and suspension, steering and cab hydraulics held ready to move.
Truck, trailer and bus — a single, deliberate market that our whole range, catalogue and technical knowledge is built around.
