Saleri is leader in designing, developing, and manufacturing advanced Thermal Management systems and cooling solutions for the automotive industry. With a history dating back to 1942, Saleri has established itself as a trusted partner to prestigious car manufacturers worldwide. Our commitment to research and development, flexible technical solutions, and focus on quality standards enable us to satisfy the growing demand for innovative thermal management solutions both for vehicles fitted with an internal combustion engine and for those with new generation electric engines. The Saleri Group now serves the global market through 7 locations and employs 660 people, recording 203 million € revenues in 2023.

The Group brings together businesses highly specialized in designing and producing solutions to support the transformation of the automotive industry through three business units.

As a Tier 1 supplier, Saleri deploys the design, development, and manufacturing of Thermal Management systems and cooling systems for leading European car manufacturers in the premium brands segment. Our collaborative approach involves co-designing Thermal Management systems with customers throughout the entire process, from product conception through prototyping and onto mass production.

Leveraging our expertise and established position as an Original Equipment manufacturer, Saleri also offers a comprehensive range of spare parts for the Independent Aftermarket segment. Our product lineup includes water pumps, distribution kits, components, and wheel bearings, with over 8,000 different products distributed across 50 markets worldwide. In 2021, Saleri Group expanded its offerings by acquiring the global trademark rights of the renowned brand Ruville and the Italian company C.D.C. S.r.l., specializing in engine and chassis auto parts for the automotive Aftermarket. These strategic acquisitions led to the birth of Saleri Aftermarket S.p.A., a dynamic company dedicated to the IAM market, combining decades of experience, new product categories, and enhanced service levels.

Our Industrial Automation division is involved in industry 4.0 projects, focusing on the design and implementation of advanced industrial automation systems and assembly lines for General Industry.
