Grammer to supply seats for Mercedes-Benz flagship truck
State-of-the-art suspended seats by Grammer AG a standard feature in the
new generation of Actros trucks from Mercedes-Benz
Another milestone in the Grammer growth strategy for commercial vehicle
business
Amberg / December 7, 2011 - Automotive supplier and seating systems
manufacturer, Grammer AG, is supplying the new generation of Actros premium
trucks from Mercedes-Benz with suspended seats. The upgraded series of the
established luxury truck model has undergone a complete overhaul and been
in production at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth / Germany since the end
of September 2011. All of the Actros cabs come standard with the newly
developed MSG 115 suspended seats from Grammer. This project marks an
important milestone for the Grammer growth strategy in the commercial
vehicle segment, and substantially strengthens the company's market
position in Europe.
Ergonomically optimized seating systems from Grammer set new standards when
it comes to individual adjustability, safety and comfort. The MSG 115
optimally absorbs horizontal vibrations and shocks through its fore/aft
isolator while the nine-step adjustable shock absorber affords additional
suspension comfort. The interactive system comprising headrest, integrated
three-point safety belt and belt height adjustment round out the safety
features of the MSG 115.
International collaboration within Grammer Group
The metal components for the MSG 115 suspended seats are manufactured at
the company's plant in Haselmuehl / Germany. The seat covers and armrests
are produced at Grammer Group's locations in southern Europe. Final
assembly is then completed at the plant in Tachov / Czech Republic.
