We Guide – Eliminating Trial and Error

We ensure seamless collaboration between Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and producers to achieve optimal results. In doing so, we pay attention to the correct functionality of composite materials and the integration of appropriate technologies into the manufacturing process. Our approach begins with the creation of a detailed requirement catalog that accurately captures and defines the needs of both the OEM and the manufacturer.

We Design – Creating the Best Solution

We design, test, and validate the fasteners according to the specifications from the guiding process. This ensures that it meets the requirements of both the OEM and the manufacturer. Bossard’s approach actively tailors the final product to the precise needs and expectations outlined in the requirement catalog.
