In 2009, the companies signed their first long-term supply contract.

So far, more than 20 Bombardier train types have been equipped with Huber+Suhner cabling solutions.

The train types include Movia metros for Delhi, India; Innovia Monorail for São Paulo, Brazil; and Twindexx Swiss Express operated by Swiss Federal Railways (SBB).
