UFI Filters says it takes a structured global approach to the aftermarket

Founded in 1971, UFI Filters explains it is a global leader in filtration technology and thermal management.
It serves a wide range of sectors – from automotive, aerospace and marine to specialised industrial and customised hydraulic applications.
Renowned for its innovation, UFI products and know-how are found in all kinds of vehicles, from Ferrari and other top F1 teams, to the European ExoMars spacecraft.
UFI Filters explains that it manages its aftermarket business with a clearly defined global strategy, integrating product development, logistics, marketing and quality control to ensure alignment with Original Equipment (OE) standards.
The company operates 19 Aftermarket sales offices across Europe, China, India, the Americas, Africa, the Middle East and Oceania, giving it a broad commercial footprint.
Its products are distributed in more than 70 countries through partnerships with major distributors.
The UFI passenger car, light commercial vehicle and motorcycle catalogue includes more than 2,400 part numbers whereas the Heavy Duty aftermarket range now includes more than 1,200 products, covering on-road applications (trucks and buses), off-road machinery (agricultural and construction equipment) and hydraulic systems.
Product development is supported by UFI’s Innovation Centres in Italy, China and India, equipped with testing systems capable of reproducing real operating conditions, dedicated pilot production areas, and advanced chemical physical analysis technologies.
Collaboration with international universities further contributes to the development of new filtration media.
This infrastructure enables the company to engineer filter materials tailored to specific customer requirements and to respond to emerging filtration trends.
Through its FormulaUFI materials – six families of internally developed media – the company conducts its own research and production of filter materials, focusing on efficiency, durability and contaminant holding capacity.
With a global organisation, ongoing investment in filtration research, and a structured approach to supporting distributors, UFI Filters says it positions its aftermarket offering to meet the needs of diverse markets, including Australia’s demanding on and off road operating conditions.
