Long trips can be stressful for the driver

Our valves increase seating comfort and improve the driver’s working conditions

Some say the tires are the most important part of the car because they make contact with the road. But isn't it rather the seat, because it makes contact with you?

Solenoid valves fill, close and vent air cushions in vehicle seats. This serves to support the lumbar vertebrae and lateral support in the seat. In addition, you can enjoy the integrated massage function in the backrest!
