About BBB Industries

WHO THEY ARE
  • Today’s customers are time-conscious, quality-minded and demanding, but most of all, they are knowledgeable. With BBB Industries OE fit, form and function, and industry-leading manufacturing processes, BBB starters, alternators, brake calipers and power steering products meet or exceed OE specifications.

  • BBB Industries, LLC, headquartered in Mobile, Alabama, is a privately held, world-class manufacturer and distributor to the North American vehicle aftermarket.

  • BBB's unique platform provides non-discretionary and application-specific aftermarket replacement parts, primarily remanufactured starters, alternators, brake calipers and power steering products, for virtually all domestic and imported cars and light and heavy duty trucks in North America, as well as for many power sport and specialty applications.

HISTORY
  • For 30+ years, BBB has been a pioneer in sustainable manufacturing. An industry that’s part of the circular economy by virtue of what it does -- extend and improve the useful life of critical auto parts.

  • Founded in 1987 in Daphne, AL by the Bigler family, BBB quickly became known for quality remanufactured parts throughout the auto industry.

  • As the industry evolved, so too did BBB. In 2014, they embraced the EV market with electric power steering remanufacturing. Over the next several years, BBB experienced 112% growth for this product line.


  • BBB saw the potential and in 2019 set out to tackle one of the largest challenges in the electric vehicle market -- upcycling and increasing the lifespan of EV batteries. BBB engineers cracked the code, successfully extending EV battery life.

  • Recognizing that demand for solar panels would exceed availability and 100,000 tons of waste would potentially go into landfills by 2035, the team searched for an innovative way to upcycle solar panels. These successes became the foundation for BBB’s newest division, TerrePower.

  • BBB’s roots in family and community continue today with second generation employees. Backed by Genstar Capital, BBB recently expanded into Europe with locations in Spain and Italy. The company does business in 58 countries, has 5 divisions and multiple sustainable manufacturing facilities in the US, Mexico and Spain.
SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING
  • Their sustainable manufacturing process transforms an original part that has lived through its first useful life into a sustainably manufactured part that has a second or third life. Sustainably manufactured products have high-quality standards and are as good or better than new parts. This approach meets the needs of the present without compromising the needs of the future. It’s about conserving natural resources, minimizing negative environmental impact, and doing good for their employees, their communities and each other.

  • Reducing environmental impact is a leading focus for companies around the world. This is especially true in the automotive industry - specifically on the manufacturing side.

  • BBB is a carbon neutral company, offsetting approximately 100,000 metric tons of carbon emissions annually. They do this through a circular process that receives used parts and sustainably manufactures them to like-new quality, or better, and ships them to customers in return for more used parts.
