Most buyers in our markets are not short of suppliers. They are short of a supplier who can answer a technical question and still fill a container.
Part identification that actually works
Our pump listings carry the OEM number and the ZF or manufacturer casting number, not just a truck model. You can check the number on the pump in your hand against the page before you order.
One container, several product lines
A builders' merchant needs plywood and film faced panels. A truck workshop needs tyres, pumps and batteries. Buying across five divisions from one desk means one order, one inspection and one bill of lading.
Sizes that other catalogues have dropped
11.00R22, 9R22.5, 8.5R17.5, 5.00R12, 12.00R24 and 425/65R22.5 are all current catalogue sizes here. Legacy fitments are what keep an older vehicle parc running.
Specification you can check before you pay
Load index tables, glue classes, board density, battery cold cranking amps and container quantities are published on the product pages rather than held back until the quotation.
Industries We Supply
Six industries with different buying logic. A formwork contractor buys on cost per pour; a fleet engineer buys on load index; a furniture factory buys on emission class.
Road Freight and Haulage
Truck tyres, steering pumps and starter batteries for fleets running European, Japanese and Chinese-built heavy vehicles.
See what we supply →IndustryConstruction and Formwork
Film faced shuttering panel, commercial plywood and on/off road truck tyres for contractors and formwork hire fleets.
See what we supply →IndustryFurniture and Interior Manufacturing
MDF, particle board and commercial plywood in the glue classes, grades and core species that furniture production actually specifies.
See what we supply →IndustryAgriculture and Farm Machinery
Agricultural tyres for tractor and implement axles, alongside hydraulic pumps for the tractor and engine platforms still in service.

Off-the-road radials in E, L and G service designations for loaders, graders, dump trucks and container handling equipment.

Chinese granite tile and slab in seven colours, from uniform pale greys to strong reds and dark contrast stones.
See what we supply →Sourcing Consolidation and Quality Control
The value of a trading group is not the product list. It is getting the identification right, the container loaded efficiently and the specification verified before the doors close.
Consolidated Container Sourcing
Five product divisions loaded into one container on one loading plan, one inspection and one bill of lading.
How it works →SolutionOEM Cross Reference and Part Identification
Identifying the right pump from the number stamped on the unit you are replacing, not from the truck model.
How it works →SolutionQuality Control and Pre Shipment Inspection
What is actually checked, by whom, and at which point in the process, for each of the five divisions.
How it works →SolutionLegacy and Hard to Find Fitments
The sizes and references that mainstream catalogues have dropped, for vehicle parcs that are still working.
How it works →Documented Shipment Records
Two records published by the company in January 2010, reproduced here with the original figures and no additions.

Guides Written From the Specification Data
Practical guides built from the same tables that appear on the product pages — how to read a load index, how to specify a formwork panel, how to identify a pump from a casting number.

Face, glue, grade and core are four separate decisions. Each one moves the cost per pour, and they are often all left to the supplier.

What does Kerns Group actually sell?
Five product divisions: commercial vehicle tyres, power steering and hydraulic gear pumps, wood panels including film faced plywood and MDF, Chinese granite, and sealed maintenance-free batteries. 93 products in total.
Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?
Kerns Group is an export trading group that designs, develops, manufactures and exports across these lines, operating from Hong Kong with offices in Dalian and Shanghai.
Which markets do you export to?
The Middle East, Africa, South America, Europe and Southeast Asia, backed by many years of export experience.
Can I order across several product divisions at once?
Yes, and it is usually the more efficient way to buy. Goods from the Dalian and Shanghai operations are consolidated so one container is stuffed once, on one bill of lading.
