VESTEL and ROBUR Join Forces to Expand Charging Infrastructure in Germany

The Turkish electrical appliance manufacturer VESTEL entrusts ROBUR Industry Service Group with maintenance and service of its DC charging stations for electromobility in Germany. The ROBUR partner companies ELMOBIS, GESA, ROBUR WIND and SNG will together coordinate the implementation of the project.

Munich, September 20, 2023 – ROBUR, the Munich-based industrial services specialist for digital transformation and ecological change, under the leadership of its e-mobility specialist ELMOBIS, is entering into a partnership with the Turkish DC charging station manufacturer VESTEL to expand the charging infrastructure in Germany.

For optimal implementation, ELMOBIS draws on the regional competence and proximity provided by the colleagues of the ROBUR partner companies ROBUR WIND (North), GESA (East), SNG (South) and takes care of the West of the Republic itself. Under the leadership of ELMOBIS, the ROBUR partners take over the complete maintenance and servicing of the DC charging stations of VESTEL within the warranty period and assure a timely on-site service. In addition, the electric and e-mobility specialists take over the legal duty of inspection and maintenance within the framework of the new charging station ordinance of the federal government, which stipulates a mandatory inspection every six months.

VESTEL Germany continues to consolidate its place in the local e-mobility market. For the past two years, the company has been successively expanding its product portfolio for this purpose in Germany. “As a group of specialists, we are predestined for this partnership thanks to our know-how and over ten years of experience in the field of e-mobility, but also thanks to our presence throughout Germany,” says Olaf Becker, CEO and partner of ROBUR ELMOBIS. “We are proud that VESTEL has chosen us and our partners for this,” adds Becker.

“We have been in contact with Olaf and ELMOBIS for quite some time and quickly realized that the group in the presented structure is the ideal partner for us in Germany,” explains Taner Ayilmaz, Managing Director of VESTEL. “With ELMOBIS, ROBUR provides us with a direct contact for the entire country – virtually everything from one source. This makes our work much easier! This way, we can ensure that we can meet our obligations from warranty and maintenance,” Ayilmaz concludes.
