Monroe is one of the oldest and most recognized brands in the automotive industry, with a history dating back to 1916. The brand was founded in Monroe, Michigan, by August F. Meyer, a mechanic who initially started manufacturing tire pumps. Monroe quickly became a specialist in shock absorbers and suspension components—essential products for vehicle comfort and safety.
In 1964, Monroe expanded its operations to Europe, significantly strengthening its international presence. This expansion made Monroe a global manufacturer operating in more than 120 countries. The company supplies not only the original equipment market (OEM), delivering directly to automakers, but also the aftermarket, reaching a broad customer base.
Over the years, Monroe has stood out for continuous innovation and ongoing technical development. Its shock absorbers and struts are designed to optimize vehicle performance and ensure a comfortable, stable, and safe driving experience. Furthermore, Monroe increasingly develops advanced suspension components that improve handling while reducing vibrations and shocks.
The brand does not focus solely on traditional vehicles but also adapts to the changing needs of mobility by investing in new technologies and materials. Monroe is committed to contributing to safer and more comfortable transportation in the future through durable and high-performance solutions.
