What Vibracoustic CV Air Springs does

Vibracoustic SE, headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, is a global Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) solutions provider for the automotive industry, operating as part of the Freudenberg Group with 501–1,000 employees. The company designs and manufactures a comprehensive portfolio of vibration isolation and damping components — including air springs for both light and commercial vehicles, motor mounts, chassis mounts, cabin mounts, torsional vibration dampers, driveline components, cooling and exhaust mounting systems, and damping/decoupling systems — alongside systems-level offerings such as the Smart Leveling System and Axle System Benchmarking & Optimization. Underlying technology rests on proprietary air-spring architecture, natural rubber and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) material expertise, vulcanization and molding production processes, and active/passive hydraulic damping concepts. The CEO is Hıdır Emre Sahin.

The business operates a Tier 1 B2B model, selling engineered components directly to automotive OEMs under quote-based, negotiated pricing, with components designed into vehicle platforms during development and validated over multi-year program lifecycles. Customer segments split horizontally between light-vehicle/passenger-car OEMs and commercial-vehicle (truck, bus) OEMs, supplemented by an aftermarket channel through the Vibracoustic Aftermarket sub-brand and a dedicated commercial-vehicle air-spring brand (blacktech Air Springs). The company's strategic emphasis — Efficiency, Functional Integration, E-Mobility, and Circular Economy — signals active repositioning of the product roadmap toward electrified powertrains, lightweight solutions, and sustainability-aligned offerings.
