MS Industrie AG: Excellent order situation for 2023

München (pta012/27.03.2023/10:00 UTC+2)

  • MS Powertrain extends supply contract with major truck customer until 2032
  • MS Ultrasonic fully booked for the entire year 2023

MS Powertrain Technologie GmbH ("MS PTG"), a subsidiary of MS Industrie AG, has agreed with a long-standing major truck customer to extend the existing supply contract for valve train systems for heavy trucks by 10 years until the end of 2032, plus an extension option. This type of valve trains is already suitable or prepared for sustainable and climate-neutral operation, for example with hydrogen or e-fuels.

Armin Distel, Member of the Management Board of MS Industrie AG: "We believe that in order to make the growing transport of goods in heavy-duty traffic climate-neutral in the future, it would be impossible to imagine life without hydrogen hot combustion and e-fuels technology. Our commercial vehicle valve train systems are an important part of the ecological turnaround in transportation."

The contract extension underlines the high-quality and strategic cooperation with MS PTG and significantly increases the visibility of the further course of business for the entire MS Industrie Group. This brings the total future order volume for MS PTG to over EUR 1.3 billion.

The order situation of the subsidiary MS Ultrasonic Technologie GmbH (MS UTG) is also at a record level with an order backlog of over EUR 60 million and already covers the capacity utilization of the entire year 2023. The returned variety of different car models increases the global business with special machines. At the same time, the distribution of MS series machines is growing steadily.

"Since mid-2022, the auto industry has initiated a turnaround and is preparing for increased global sales. The development of new models is of crucial importance for the car manufacturers. The positive response to the special machines as well as to the series machines from MS UTG is reflected in the fact that we can already report full utilization at this early point in the year," says Dr. Andreas Aufschnaiter, Member of the Management Board of MS Industrie AG.
