Corteco is a supplier of automotive spare parts for the independent aftermarket and is part of the global Freudenberg Group. Its origins go back to Turin, Italy, where Corte & Cosso was founded in the 1920s. The brand was registered in 1932, and in 1936, a collaboration began with Freudenberg. This alliance combined Italian manufacturing expertise with German technology, forming the foundation for today’s technological advantage. In 1966, the company was officially established as a subsidiary of the Freudenberg Group.
The company focuses on supplying high-quality replacement parts to distributors and workshops around the world. With a product range that includes seals, vibration dampers, and cabin air filters, the brand meets OEM specifications and responds to the increasing demands of modern vehicles. Thanks to access to advanced technologies and research facilities within the group, Corteco is recognized for its innovative product development and continuous quality improvement.
With operations in more than 15 countries — including the United States, Germany, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Singapore, China, India, and Brazil — the company has a strong international presence. This global reach allows for fast deliveries and local technical support. The combination of technical know-how, practical innovation, and global distribution makes the brand a reliable partner in the spare parts market.
Through continuous investment in technology and customer-focused solutions, the company continues to stand out. Quality, reliability, and availability are at the core of its corporate philosophy. Thus, Corteco not only supplies parts but also delivers confidence to mechanics and distributors in a constantly evolving market.
