- Valeo SE Valeo SE is a French multinational automotive supplier that designs, manufactures, and sells components, integrated systems, modules, and services for automakers and the independent aftermarket worldwide. Founded in 1923 and headquartered at 43 Rue Bayen in Paris, France, the company operates through four main business groups—POWER, BRAIN, LIGHT, and Thermal Systems (prior to recent divestitures)—with approximately 110,000 employees across 33 countries, including 184 production plants, 55 R&D centers, and 15 distribution platforms. Its core products and services encompass electrification solutions such as high-voltage electric powertrains, 48V systems, and magnet-free electric motors; advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) including SCAlA 3 LiDAR, front cameras, computer-vision cameras, and occupant monitoring; visibility systems like windshield wipers, lighting modules (e.g., Thinbilite), and cleaning devices for cameras and radars; thermal systems for engine cooling and climate control; interior experience technologies such as displays, Phone-As-A-Key, telematics, immersive sound (ImagIn with Sennheiser), and dynamic lighting environments (with ams OSRAM); powertrain components including clutches, motors, actuators, and transmission systems; and aftermarket offerings like original equipment spares, replacement parts, and value-added products in electrification and remanufacturing. Valeo serves original equipment manufacturers globally, with key markets in Europe & Africa (48% of OE sales), Asia (31%, including 15% in China), North America (19%), and South America (2%), while targeting new mobility players through innovations in software-defined vehicles (SDV), wireless charging (IneeZ Air Charging), and sustainable solutions like heat reuse units. Recent major changes include the 2024 creation of the POWER Division through the merger of thermal and powertrain systems businesses, optimizing manufacturing and R&D footprints primarily in Europe; the June 2024 divestiture of the Thermal Commercial Vehicles division to H.I.G. Capital (rebranded Spheros), yielding a 91 million euro capital gain and reducing net debt; the August 2024 sale of aftermarket parts maker PIAA; plant expansions such as the November 2025 completion of a 16,200 square meter facility in Wenling, China, featuring China's first wiper strip extrusion line and upgraded production for wiper motors and sensor cleaning devices; and a series of strategic partnerships, including collaborations with Teledyne FLIR (thermal imaging, January 2024), Seeing Machines (driver monitoring, July 2024), MAHLE (iBEE magnet-free motors, October 2024), AWS (SDV cloud-native, January 2025), Virta (integrated charging, February 2025), ROHM Semiconductor (power electronics, November 2024), and Tata AutoComp (joint venture in India, August 2025). In 2024, Valeo reported sales of 21.5 billion euros, an EBITDA margin of 13.3%, and free cash flow of 481 million euros after restructuring costs, while unveiling its Elevate 2028 strategic plan in November 2025 to drive profitability, cash generation, and sales growth amid automotive megatrends in electrification, ADAS, interior reinvention, and lighting.
