The Customer

The Swiss Carrosserie Hess AG has been a pioneer in the construction of buses with electric drive for more than 100 years. They have established themselves as an innovative company standing out through design, quality, and reliability. As a result, their environmentally friendly HESS buses are in great demand with public transportation companies in Switzerland, Europe, and overseas.

HESS takes pride in helping to improve the quality of life in cities and urban areas.

The Solution: Efficient Logistics and Cooperation

This is where Bossard comes into play as their main supplier of C-parts. We deliver the Nord-Lock® wheel lock nuts in size M22 x 1.5 via the customer’s existing SmartBin system – which means less tied-up capital and more warehouse space for HESS. We will supply this product over a period of approximately four years. Thus, their existing collaboration with us has helped HESS to meet their customer’s requirements efficiently and reliably.
