Applications
In times of urbanisation, climate change, developing areas, etc., public transport becomes an important alternative to car traffic. As the importance of public transportation grows, so too does the need for greater reliability to ensure the transportation flow 24/7. As passengers make daily use of these modes of transport, comfort and operational excellence are in high demand. IGW ensures reliable rolling stock for great public transportation.
