Division 29 of the UK SIC 2007 list. It holds 1 code, listed in full below with the number of active UK companies filed under each.
Everyone knows the big vehicle plants. The grassroots of this division are component makers. UK registrations pile into 29320, manufacture of other parts and accessories for motor vehicles. That code holds suppliers of interior trim, brackets and wiring harnesses. It also holds performance and tuning parts firms, and the aftermarket specialists who make components for classic and modified cars. Trailer and semi-trailer builders sit in this division too, along with coachwork and conversion firms such as campervan builders. Most companies here are small suppliers, not assemblers.
Parts makers ship all day, to production lines, distributors and online buyers. That is why logistics providers and pallet networks chase this division for freight contracts. Recruiters supplying production staff follow, as do quality consultants working to automotive standards and tooling suppliers. The signals split by segment. For aftermarket brands, a fresh incorporation plus a weak website points to a launch in progress, and the poor-website filter finds them. For tier suppliers, growth and new filings hint at contract wins. Those wins ripple into haulage, packaging and staffing. Electric vehicle supply chains keep adding new entrants worth watching.
Usually yes. Coachbuilding and body conversion has its own codes inside division 29, and those fit campervan converters. Specialist parts fabrication fits 29320. Some converters pick a motor trade code from division 45 instead, especially when selling the finished vehicles is the main business. All of these are legitimate. You declare the code yourself and can adjust it on a confirmation statement.
If you make and sell parts, list 29320 next to a division 45 sales code. That shows the full picture, and a company may hold up to four codes. If you only distribute parts made by others, skip division 29 and use the motor trade wholesale or retail codes. You choose codes at incorporation and revise them on the CS01 confirmation statement. There is no approval process.
