More Than a Parts Supplier

The Past, Today and in the Future

Ferdinand Bilstein carries over 50,000 different products in its product range – some come from selected partner producers, some from OE-suppliers. In addition, there are numerous proprietary articles: febi products – Made in Ennepetal.

Ferdinand Bilstein has been active in the metal processing industry since 1844 and thus possesses lots of experience. In our in-house production - bilstein group Engineering - we manufacture various automotive parts – from chain tensioners to water and oil pumps to wheel hubs.

Our production area covers almost the entire production chain on 10,000 square metres: from toolmaking and machining to hardening, up to quality assurance with our own metrology room.

Compliance with the highest quality standards at every step is self-evident to us as a manufacturer.
