In mid-March, the contract was signed with the Leipzig-based company HeiterBlick for the mechanical development services and system integration for the new streetcars for Leipzig, Görlitz and Zwickau. We are delighted to be working on this scale for our home state of Saxony for the first time in the company's history.

New drive technologies, systems and functions - modern light rail vehicles and streetcars are becoming increasingly complex, but also heavier. Where weight is added, savings have to be made elsewhere. Together with the project partners RCS GmbH Rail Components and Systems, Arno Hentschel GmbH and the Fraunhofer Plastics Center Oberlausitz FKO, Hörmann Vehicle Engineering GmbH has taken on this problem.

The "INTEGRAL - Integrative lightweight roof for rail vehicles" project has been working for a year on the development of a highly integrative lightweight roof structure made from a load-optimized fibre-plastic composite.
