Who we are

Piolax is known worldwide for its degree of excellence in automobile parts and is committed to growing along with our customers.

Piolax Incorporation is a Japanese owned group.

As part of our global footprint expansion it was decided to establish a location in Europe. In August of 1995, Piolax Limited began production in Sunderland UK and we moved to Altham in 2000. This was to better support both Nissan and Honda operations in the UK and open the European market.

As a leading supplier of plastic and metal products, Piolax is continually strengthening its position by expanding its global marketing and production capabilities. Few companies can provide the depth of knowledge offered with in-house manufacturing that we have developed at Piolax.
