It holds spare parts of every brand, which means all spare parts of the truck brands, the construction equipment, the busses and the marine- and industrial engines. Being successful in the long run, that is our vision! Therefore, we offer storage but also secondary activities, which focus on delivery precision, service and efficiency.
