About Spectra Premium

Spectra Premium has been one of North America's most trusted names in automotive aftermarket parts since its founding in 1989. Founded in 1989 and based in Boucherville, Quebec, Canada, Spectra Premium Mobility Solutions designs, engineers, manufactures, and distributes key automotive parts for both everyday drivers and professional technicians. What sets Spectra Premium apart is that its aftermarket products are rooted in genuine OEM expertise — the same engineering and manufacturing knowledge that goes into building parts for vehicle assembly lines.

OEM Expertise Meets Aftermarket Quality

Spectra Premium is a North American leader in aftermarket auto parts for cooling systems, fuel delivery, undercar, engine management, heavy duty, and OE manufacturing. Spectra Premium only produces completely new products that do not require any core charges, meaning customers receive a fresh, ready-to-install part every time. This commitment to all-new components — never remanufactured — reflects the brand's dedication to consistent, reliable performance.

In the period between 1998 and 2000, Spectra Premium acquired 14 aftermarket companies specializing in the manufacture of cooling and fuel system products and was awarded the first OE contracts on fuel tanks and radiators in 2002. The subsequent acquisition of Richporter Technologies extended the Spectra Premium product line coverage into engine management parts, rounding out a comprehensive catalog that spans the critical systems in any vehicle.

Radiators Built to Last

Spectra Premium's cooling system lineup is one of its most celebrated product families. Spectra Premium manufactures exceptional aftermarket radiators, including all-aluminum high-performance models. Backed by decades of manufacturing expertise, their radiators are designed with siderail stress cuts to optimize thermal expansion and durability, and are constructed from high-quality materials — including all-aluminum, plastic-aluminum, and copper-brass — to meet the unique demands of a wide range of applications. Whether you drive a daily commuter or a heavy-duty work truck, Spectra Premium's radiators are engineered to keep your engine running at optimal temperature.

Fuel Tanks: A World-Leading Legacy

Perhaps no product category better defines Spectra Premium's heritage than fuel tanks. Based on more than 25 years of fuel delivery system expertise, Spectra Premium is a Tier-1 OEM fuel tank manufacturer and the world leader in aftermarket steel fuel tank production. Innovative and future-oriented, Spectra Premium Industries is the leading worldwide manufacturer of new fuel tanks for the replacement-parts market — in a market previously dominated by recycled parts, they offer new fuel tanks, sending units, and oil pans that meet or exceed OEM standards. Their fuel tanks are an ideal choice for drivers seeking a safe, long-lasting undercar replacement.

Manufacturing Standards & Coverage

Many undercar parts such as fuel tanks and oil pans, as well as cooling parts such as radiators and heavy-duty radiators, are designed and manufactured in Boucherville, Canada — reinforcing Spectra Premium's commitment to North American manufacturing quality. Spectra Premium maintains strict manufacturing control standards, as evidenced by numerous quality certifications including ISO 9001 and ISO/TS-16949. With a catalog spanning thousands of applications, finding the right Spectra Premium part for virtually any make or model is straightforward.
