About Us
Deep expertise in marine diesel engine spare parts sourcing from China, backed by technology.
Our Story
TH Shipping Service was founded in Shanghai in 2017 by professionals with over two decades of experience in the marine spare parts industry, including senior roles at one of the world's leading marine engine parts suppliers covering the European market.
We saw an opportunity to combine our deep product knowledge and industry relationships with China's manufacturing capabilities to offer shipowners, ship managers, and spare parts traders a reliable, efficient sourcing channel for marine diesel engine components.
Today, we supply spare parts for 700+ engine models across all major two-stroke and four-stroke marine diesel engine types. Our customers span across Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and beyond.
What truly sets us apart is our proprietary business management system — built in-house and continuously refined over the years. It integrates AI-powered part identification, automated quotation generation, real-time supplier price comparison, freight calculation, and customs documentation into a single seamless workflow. This technology allows us to process enquiries and deliver quotations with a speed and accuracy that larger competitors often struggle to match.
What Sets Us Apart
We Know the Parts
Unlike general trading companies, we specialize in marine diesel engines. We understand the difference between a genuine OEM part, a quality aftermarket alternative, and a substandard copy — and we advise our customers accordingly.
Direct Supply Chain
Based in Shanghai, we work directly with Chinese manufacturers — no middlemen, no unnecessary markups. We've built relationships with dozens of specialized factories since 2017.
Technology-Driven Efficiency
Our proprietary system uses AI for part identification, OCR for nameplate and drawing recognition, automated supplier price matching, and intelligent freight calculation — turning around quotations in hours, not days. You always deal directly with decision-makers.
