Lightweight construction materials such as carbon, aluminium, and optical fibres are trendsetters in the industries, but they also present a special challenge for fastening systems. Leading brands such as bigHead®, Huck®, Nord-Lock®, PEM® and Southco®, as well as Bossard’s ecosyn® are particularly suitable for use in railway technologies as they save costs already during assembly, increase reliability and safety during operation and significantly reduce maintenance costs. The components of the Bossard Group are mainly used in the interior, in the cockpit and for the seats.

The company will also be presenting at Speakers’ Corner on the topic: "Light & Lean: Innovative fastening technology and logistics solutions for traffic engineering." Bossard Group, alongside bighead and Stadler rail AG, will be presenting sophisticated fastening solutions for lightweight construction and services for leaner production processes in the transport sector.
