Production is often seen as a man’s world, but Estela, Maiara and Ayfer prove every day that it’s not about what you are, but about who you are and what you bring to the team.

Tomorrow is International Women’s Day, and that’s why we’re putting these three incredible colleagues in the spotlight. While there are more great women working at Tribus, Estela, Maiara and Ayfer are the women in our production team. They are the driving force behind our in-house TriflexAIR seat production, ensuring quality and precision in every step.

With their dedication, energy, and laughter, they inspire us every day and light the way for an even better workplace ❤️

Schiphol is where countless journeys begin. And every traveler deserves a smooth start to their adventure 🌍

For passengers with reduced mobility, moving through the airport – and getting to their flight – should be just as effortless.

That’s why we had the opportunity to build wheelchair-accessible minibuses for Axxicom Airport Caddy B.V.. These buses provide a comfortable and safe ride across the airport, right up to the aircraft door.

Accessibility on board. Comfort secured. Ready for takeoff! 🛫

Tribus had the pleasure of hosting representatives from the Municipality of Utrecht for a tour and discussions on innovation, collaboration, and future plans. The visit provided valuable insights, and the positive feedback highlighted Tribus’ commitment and atmosphere. The company appreciates the opportunity to connect and share its vision.
At RETTmobil 2023, Tribus met Köhler Transfer, a company specializing in transporting people with disabilities. Their request for a flexible and accessible vehicle resulted in a custom wheelchair bus featuring TriflexAIR technology and ISOFIX seats. The vehicle combines safety, accessibility, and ease of use. Tribus is proud to contribute to barrier-free mobility in Germany and beyond.

Recently, we delivered a Civitas Economy L3H3 to the beautiful German island of Fehmarn, located in the Baltic Sea. This low-floor bus is perfectly tailored to the needs of the island and the important role of the Bürgerbus Association Fehmarn:

✨ Flexible and spacious: Ideal for transporting tourists who visit the stunning beaches and natural areas of Fehmarn.

♿ Accessible: Accommodates one wheelchair, allowing everyone, regardless of mobility, to enjoy the scenic views.

🏙️ Compact design: With a short wheelbase, it’s perfect for the narrow streets in the picturesque villages of Fehmarn.

Community bus associations in Germany, known locally as Bürgerbus, are volunteer-driven transportation initiatives. They play a crucial role in providing mobility in rural and hard-to-reach areas. They connect people to local services, reduce social isolation, and contribute to an inclusive society.

The simplicity of no loose retractors and easily adjustable seating makes this wheelchair-accessible bus highly flexible and perfect for any trip.

A major highlight at the exhibition was the debut of our lowered left-hand side entry, specifically developed for the e-Sprinter. This innovative design is fully approved by Mercedes-Benz.

The exhibition days were a great success. We engaged with many new potential customers and look back with
