Sunfab Hydraulics, a world-leading provider of hydraulic solutions, and Future Transport Solutions, specialists in customer-focused and innovative transport solutions, are proud to announce a new long-term and strategic partnership.

The collaboration between Future Transport Solutions and Sunfab Hydraulics enables Sunfab to offer the industry a wide range of complete, electrified solutions for hydraulic operation. Comprehensive solutions optimized to the customer's needs that provide improved performance, reduced energy consumption, and a lower environmental impact.

– Together, we will develop and electrify the operation of Sunfab's hydraulic products, resulting in more sustainable and energy-efficient solutions for the industry. Through this collaboration, we can offer customers a tailored solution when it comes to combining hydraulics with electric drive, says Johan Sundin, Product Manager at Sunfab.

Electrified hydraulic systems deliver reliable performance, along with several important benefits:
Increased energy efficiency: Electric drive requires less energy, leading to lower operating costs.
Lower emissions: Electrification helps reduce overall emissions, making the machines more environmentally friendly.
Reduced noise levels: Electric motors provide an improved working environment with lower noise levels.
Improved performance: Electric motors offer more precise and reliable power output.

– We are proud to collaborate with Sunfab Hydraulics to bring hydraulic systems into an electrified world. We believe Sunfab is the right partner for FTS. Sunfab's product quality and low noise levels will be increasingly appreciated in the market when they are mounted in combination with a quiet electric motor instead of a traditional diesel engine. Sunfab's global network and excellent reputation also align perfectly with FTS’ goal of building long-term relationships with customers in a global market, says Mathias Pagels Fick, CEO of FTS Future Transport Solutions.

– The electrification of the transport industry and hydraulic systems represents one of the greatest changes in 100 years. With Sunfab celebrating 100 years in 2025, it feels both exciting and the right timing to begin this collaboration. We have always been driven by the development of innovative solutions for our customers, and this is a natural next step in our journey towards a more sustainable future! says Marie Nilsson, CEO of Sunfab Hydraulics.
