From individual production to small series of components, assemblies and completely built armored vehicles.
Every discipline under one roof
Built in Bremen, from the first part to the finished vehicle.
TRASCO manufactures with its own specialist departments for steelwork, surface technology, sheet-metal working, mechatronics, suspension modifications, model making, saddlery and assembly. For OEM clients, this means one partner and one plant for the entire program, with short distances between design, production and quality control.
Components
Armor parts, reinforcement kits and complete armoring kits, manufactured to drawing and delivered ready for installation in your line.
Assemblies & cabins
Complete armored cabins for limousines and trucks, partition walls and special equipment as ready-to-install assemblies.
Complete vehicles
Fully built armored vehicles, from the base vehicle to the finished product, including documentation and certification management.
The plant in Bremen
One line for highly individual vehicles.
The assembly line in Bremen is specialized in manufacturing highly individual vehicles. Every vehicle is planned and prepared in the ERP system before production starts.
The whole process is monitored, and all protection components are traced through production.

Final inspection
Specialist departments
Eight departments, one production
01
Steelwork
Ballistic steel is cut, formed and welded into the armoring cage. Joints and overlaps are executed exactly as designed, because that is where protection is decided.
02
Sheet-metal working
Body panels, brackets and cover parts are produced and adapted in-house, so the armored vehicle keeps the lines and fit of the original body.
03
Surface technology
Priming, painting, cavity sealing and corrosion protection in our own paint shop, followed by polishing and finishing to the quality of the base vehicle.
04
Mechatronics
Wiring harnesses, control units and electrical options are integrated and adapted to the armored vehicle, from sirens and intercom systems to multimedia installations.
05
Suspension modifications
Springs, dampers, stabilizers, brakes and wheels are matched to the added weight, so the armored vehicle keeps its driving stability and braking performance.
06
Model making
Templates, fixtures and prototype parts are built in-house, the link between the 3D design and the first physical part.
07
Saddlery
Leather, headliners and trim parts are cut and sewn in our own saddlery, so the interior keeps the look and comfort of the base vehicle.
08
Assembly
Doors, ballistic glass, trim and equipment come together in final assembly, followed by function checks and final inspection before delivery.
