Schwarzmüller goes to the IAA with five vehicles
"At this year's IAA, we are strongly emphasizing our most important unique selling point: individuality! Schwarzmüller is able to build individual vehicles and develop vehicle types together with our customers according to their specific requirements," said CEO Roland Hartwig at the company headquarters in Freinberg near Schärding.
More than 60 percent of the annual production of around 7,800 (in 2015) vehicles have individual components. These go far beyond mere equipment options. The basis for this is advice from Schwarzmüller experts on how to optimize the benefits of the vehicle for each application. Many of these individual customer developments form the impetus for further developing the standard vehicles.
At the IAA in September, the Schwarzmüller Group will be presenting the latest generation of the aluminum box body, an ULTRALIGHT platform trailer for flexible use, the revised version of the extendable low-loader semi-trailer and two solutions from the moving floor product range in the outdoor area. red
