Ficosa International GmbH recently received a big order to produce mirrors for three volume models for a well-known utility vehicle manufacturer.

Ficosa will provide the front mirrors of the field of view class VI and the smaller close-proximity mirror of the field of view class V, also known as a ramp mirror. The company says it won the follow-up order thanks to an optimum price-performance relationship of the mirrors, which also will offer an extended field of vision for drivers according to the general conditions required by law.  

“We are delighted with the new contract because, other than seeking new clients, as a worldwide partner and system supplier for the utility vehicle and automotive industry, our mission is to keep our current customers highly satisfied,” said Jörn Klingemann, managing director of Ficosa International GmbH. “The current follow-up order is an important confirmation of our high-quality products, quick availability of the mirror systems and competitive prices."

Ficosa says the innovative mirror systems it has developed prove that modern design, a high level of safety and maximum ease of use can be perfectly combined.  The front mirror of the field of vision class VI and the close-proximity mirrors of the field of vision class V are being developed in Wolfenbüttel. The central development system for utility vehicles and the German production centre for the entire Ficosa group are based in Lower Saxony (Germany). 

Ficosa International GmbH in Wolfenbüttel, Germany, develops, produces and distributes rear-mirror systems for medium-heavy trucks, buses, trams, agricultural and construction vehicles as well as for vans and off-road vehicles. The company employs a total of 243 in Germany. Further information is available at www.ficosa.de.
