SHIH HSIANG (SH AUTO PARTS)
Shih Hsiang Auto Parts focuses
on the pursuit of excellence in
suspension parts, track control arm
and wishbone arm production, and
has been a global leader and OE
solution provider in this field for over
40 years.
The combination of continuous
commitment to customizing
diversified items, deep integration
with the global market (exporting to
over 88 countries), precise in-house
product development capability and
widest car model coverage with over
12,000 sets of tooling, the company
has become an influential expert in
the industry.
The family-owned business, based
in Taipei, was founded in 1978. Now
with 500 employees, the company
prides itself on its production
technologies, inspection equipment
and manufacturing processes. All SH
departments are certified to the TUV
ISO 9001:2000 standard. The company
has factories in Taiwan and China.
Apart from being a leading strategic
supplier and strong partner to their
customers in both North America
and Europe, Shih Hsiang also makes
products available under its SH
brand in fast-growing markets,
including Asia, Middle East, Latin
Americas, and Russian Federation.
The company’s opened a new mega-sized
plant in Dounan in February,
covering an area ten times the size
of an American football field. The
factory will bring customers much
shorter lead times with powerful
capacity support. The whole plant is
monitored by IOT allowing production
status to be tracked in real time as
well as maintaining premium quality.
Manufacturing is heavily automated,
including an automated storage retrieval
system and automatic
stamping and welding lines, while the
use of solar panels makes a substantial
contribution to the energy transition.
The Covid-19 pandemic has had some important effects on the company’s
business, since it says that economic
pressure is causing drivers to delay
purchasing new cars, meaning that
repairs on their current (and older)
vehicles become even more vital. In
addition, online B2C sales of automotive
parts and accessories in North America
and Europe are expected to account
for 10-15% of the overall aftermarket by
2020. As DIY rises in popularity again,
SH says the prospects for the whole
automotive market are bright.
SH is well prepared for the EV trend
and its suspension control arms will
also be applied to electric car models.
It already supplies front control arms
for the Tesla Model 3, upgraded this
year with higher durability, tensile
strength and lighter weight thanks to
a new ball joint design and upgraded
materials. The company has joined
the electric vehicle platform, “MIH
Alliance” established by Hon Hai and
aimed at sharing and innovation within
the segment
