VDL Staalservice is a proud supplier of VDL BUS & COACH, an important subsidiary of the VDL Groep. We produce various steel components for the latest generation of electric buses, the VDL Citea.
Project new generation VDL Citea
The VDL Citea is an innovative electric city bus, designed from scratch. This modular platform is suitable for all types of buses and is very different from the previous diesel variant. VDL Staalservice produces various steel components for the VDL Citea.
The role of VDL Staalservice
For the bus design, we were involved in discussions about the manufacturability from an early stage. Thanks to our growing engineering capacities, we are able to provide expert advice. We enjoy sharing ideas with our customers so that we can fulfil all their stringent requirements and wishes.
Production
Our extra production location in Heeze, completely dedicated to welding, enables the continuous and efficient production of the components. Advanced measuring equipment guarantees that each component meets the highest specifications.
Results and Future
By applying efficiency improvements throughout this ongoing project, we can generate more and better output. We always strive to achieve continuous improvement and look forward to further cooperation with VDL Bus & Coach in future projects. We thank VDL Bus & Coach for their trust and enjoyable cooperation. Our relationship is a perfect example of the VDL motto: “Strength through cooperation”.
