A focused profile of products, grade families, packing and transport options, and supply-chain services.
YARA CAR is the automotive trading division of YARA INDUSTRY, covering source identification and B2B quotations for passenger-car, light-commercial, heavy-duty, and selected EV/hybrid components. Unlike commodity grades, automotive parts are primarily specified by OE references, validated cross-references, platform, engine/transmission code, hardware configuration, and the quality category supported by manufacturer evidence.

Quality designations must be evidence-based rather than inferred from the brand or country of manufacture.
| Topic | Details |
|---|---|
| Genuine / OE-branded | May be quoted only when genuine branded packaging, provenance and authorized-source claims can be substantiated. |
| OE supplier / OES | Supplier relationship and exact part provenance must be verified. “OEM quality” is not a universal certification. |
| Independent aftermarket | Multiple manufacturer and quality/price tiers, supplied according to brand, part number, test evidence and buyer agreement. |
| Private label | Possible only with a consenting manufacturer and a separate agreement covering artwork, product testing, traceability and legal compliance. |
| Quality standards | ISO 9001 / IATF 16949 certificates are verified at the legal-entity/site level where claimed; item-level approvals remain distinct. |
| Technical matching | Part-number cross-reference, engine/transmission code, VIN-derived options, region/drive side and feature set must align. |
| Traceability | Batch/lot details, manufacturer label, country of origin, warranty conditions and product photographs as available. |
OE number or manufacturer part number; vehicle make/model/year; engine code; transmission code; chassis/VIN or approved vehicle configuration where necessary; left/right and front/rear location; preferred manufacturer; quantity; packaging and certification requirements.
Transport mode is chosen according to urgency, carton volume, item value, safety classification and destination.
| Product Group | Packing & Logistics Options |
|---|---|
| Standard spare parts | Factory cartons, labeled master cartons, sealed pallets; sea FCL / LCL, international road or rail, or air freight as feasible. |
| Urgent small orders / samples | Courier or air cargo for carrier-accepted, non-restricted parts and document shipments; customs paperwork required. |
| Heavy mechanical parts | Pallets, timber crates or steel racks for engines, gearboxes and axle assemblies; sea/road/rail with vibration and corrosion protection. |
| Fragile electronics & lamps | Anti-static packaging where required, impact cushioning, moisture control and serialized labels; air or sea shipment by suitability. |
| Lubricants / aerosol / chemicals | Pack and book by SDS and transport hazard class. Aerosols, flammable fluids or chemicals may face air / parcel restrictions. |
