The Holbro Difference: Client Success Stories

From complex overhauls to precision machining—discover how our work makes a difference.

A major retrofit program with targeted milestones was planned for our fleet of Stadler Flirt Trains. The lead time from the OEM was unacceptable to meet the impending start date. I was able to provide Holbro with all the design specifications for a high-volume order of metal plates, brackets and fixings I required machining. Despite the time pressure to supply in line with program start date, the Holbro team worked professionally and efficiently keeping me informed of any supply chain issues. The quality of the service and the machined components was to a very high standard. I look forward to collaborating with Holbro again on future business needs and projects.
