Ristori S.p.A. and KYBURZ are looking forward to working together in the future. The Swiss-Japanese team from the IEA PVPS programme visited Embrach. This year, the exhibition vehicles were wrapped in eye-catching colours – a real eye-catcher at the stand and on the test track. KYBURZ congratulates Ali on his 15th anniversary and Selim on his wedding.

Officine Ristori S.p.A. was founded in 1968 as a sole proprietorship specialising in architectural metalwork. Today, Ristori is a leader in the specialist field of components for two- and three-wheeled vehicles as well as commercial and industrial vehicles. The company has considerable production expertise, enabling it to design, industrialise and produce all kinds of vehicle components in a short space of time.

The company has a long-standing customer base, with PIAGGIO S.p.A. and its legendary Vespa scooter, a symbol of Italian style around the world, being particularly noteworthy.

In order to compete in the global market, it is crucial to have a broad-based supply chain with the best possible suppliers.

Eric Nève and Stefan Breu visited Officine Ristori S.p.A. for this purpose and discussed options for expanding the collaboration.

The IEA PVPS programme (International Energy Agency Photovoltaic Power Systems) focuses on strengthening international cooperation so that photovoltaics can play a central role in the transition to sustainable energy systems.

The Swiss-Japanese Team Task 17 from this programme aims to demonstrate how photovoltaics can make transport more sustainable in the following three areas:

• For vehicles: PV can be integrated into cars, commercial vehicles and other vehicles
• For infrastructure: PV can power charging stations, battery systems and energy management
• Charging options:
• - Charging via the electricity grid with PV-supported electricity
• - Local PV directly at the charging point

As part of a project trip, the members of this task team visited KYBURZ Switzerland AG. Urs Muntwyler and Eva Schüpbach from Dr. Schüpbach & Muntwyler GmbH in Bern and Task 17 Manager Keiichi Komoto from Japan.

KYBURZ is also increasingly focusing on photovoltaic technology in its development and would like to express its gratitude for this exciting exchange on the topic of ‘sustainable energy’.

Preparations for the Post Expo in Amsterdam are in full swing and an important step has now been successfully completed: all exhibition vehicles have been wrapped.

After the marketing team had designed the layouts, Shaban and Gentrit Murati from MSG Werbetechnik took over the implementation. With great precision, patience and dedication, the vehicles were wrapped in several hours of work, and the result is impressive.

The vehicles have now arrived in Amsterdam, where they can be inspected and test driven.
KYBURZ would like to express its sincere thanks for the commitment and excellent cooperation!

Ali Shabani has been an indispensable part of our technical dispatch team for 15 years. Hardly anyone knows our vehicles and processes as well as he does, and hardly anyone shares their knowledge as openly and willingly.

Whenever a question arises or quick help is needed, the first port of call is usually Ali. He is always happy to help and never says no. With his approach, he finds a solution to every problem and takes the time to explain things to others.

Ali is not only very popular with his colleagues, but also with our service partners, who equally appreciate his competence and friendly manner. Through his commitment and many years of experience, he contributes significantly to the strength and reliability of our technical service.

We would like to congratulate you on your 15th anniversary and thank you, Ali, for your great commitment, your helpfulness and your valuable contribution to the success of our company. We look forward to many more years together!

After eight years of intensive and successful collaboration, we bid farewell to Wolfgang Zenz, who supported us as an external programmer with his company OpenShape in the further development of our ERP system.

olfgang was much more than an external service provider for KYBURZ Switzerland: he was a valued partner who worked on our projects with great commitment, passion and precision. He made a significant contribution, particularly to the further development of our internal system ‘Pachi’ to version 3.

In our daily collaboration, Wolfgang impressed us with his reliable and structured approach to work. At the same time, he was always open to professional exchanges and passionate discussions – always with the aim of finding the best possible solution.

Dear Wolfgang, we wish you all the best for your future projects, many exciting challenges and continued enjoyment in development as before.
