Bilstein
When August Bilstein laid the foundations for the innovation
incubator BILSTEIN in Altenvoerde in Germany's Westphalia region in
1873, nobody had any idea of the crucial influence the company's
products would one day have on the driving comfort and safety of
cars. Instead it was metal window fittings - sold under the catchy
name of AUBI, an abbreviation of August Bilstein - that soon made
the company famous far beyond the boundaries of Bilstein's local
region and even abroad. In 1954, BILSTEIN was the first to realise
the potential offered by an idea of Prof. Bourcier de Carbon, a
French researcher in the field of vibrations. The aim was to
eliminate the physical disadvantages of the conventional telescopic
shock absorbers, whilst at the same time making the dampers lighter
and able to be fitted in any position. Enormous effort went into
development, accompanied by substantial investment in the necessary
production facilities, in order to achieve this ambitious target.
And it paid off. The introduction of the first mono-tube gas
pressure shock absorber in a standard production Mercedes-Benz
vehicle in 1957 by what was at the time the 'Fittings and car jack
manufacturer BILSTEIN' (Beschlag- und Wagenheber-Hersteller
BILSTEIN) is still today considered a major contribution to active
driving safety. To this day, the demands of its customers in the
automotive and tuning industries, combined with its commitment to
motor sports, are what drive development and innovation at
BILSTEIN. All AMG Mercedes in the DTM and over half of the teams in
the 24 hour race on the Nurburgring approach the starting line with
BILSTEIN accessories. The partnership and co-operation within the
group will enable the company to continue to inspire with
innovations in the traditional BILSTEIN way.
