Bodymaking

Bodymaking is the second main focus at CARVATECH. With the backing of long years of experience in the field of rope­way carrier engin­eering, CARVATECH bodymaking activities are organized in three product groups: Visitor Trains, Special Bodywork and Automotive Engineering.

These products reflect the company's core competence in lightweight alu­mi­num con­struction, bonding tech­no­logy and firstclass engineering to design specifications.

This competence is appreciated by leading brands in the car industry and the fields of automotive engineering and firefighting.

"...thinking in solutions", from the design concept to the finished product, that is what customers get from CARVATECH.
