An Innovative Aluminium Bus Body
As an innovative bus body builder, Volgren offers a comprehensive range of aluminium buses. Our company undertakes bus body manufacture using a one-of-a-kind aluminium system that makes our buses stronger, lighter and more energy efficient than traditional steel buses.
Volgren has an alliance with Hess in Europe and Gillig in the United States, providing us with access to proven, world-leading technology.
A Volgren bus has a Co-Bolt aluminium bus body, enabling a longer working life with less down time and need for repair. Our bus company is committed to delivering the highest quality buses with exceptional design.
Be it a low route floor bus, rigid bus or articulated bus, Volgren has the expertise to deliver a cost and energy efficient solution.
The Co-Bolt Advantage
Aluminium is lightweight, corrosion resistant and requires no protective coatings. A bus made of aluminium has a longer working life with less down time, reducing the need for spare buses.
One of the secrets to Volgren's bus sales is the use of the Co-Bolt aluminium extrusion body technique, in which our buses are built using a system of bolted gusseted joints.
Because buses are exposed to continuous vibration and stresses due to dynamic loading, welded joints can fracture and fail. Volgren's bolted system avoids this, and results in a much longer joint life.
We can extrude aluminium into complex shapes allowing for intricate design and integrally strong structures, producing buses that are hundreds of kilograms lighter than traditional steel-framed buses.
The complex aluminium technology results in vehicles that are lighter, stronger, safer, easier to repair - and more cost effective.
Volgren is dedicated to the highest level of bus safety. We have the highest quality accredited ratings of any bus body builder in Australia, with ISO 9001 ratings for the safety, quality and environmental aspects of our business.
