TIP-TOPOL and NEOTEC at CZECHBUS 2026 – Prague
Representatives of TIP-TOPOL and NEOTEC will visit CZECHBUS 2026, held on 24-26 November 2026 at PVA EXPO PRAHA. CZECHBUS is the leading trade fair for buses, public transport, telematics and service technology in Central Europe. Held every two years, it brings together bus manufacturers, public transport operators, suppliers and service partners from across the region.
TIP-TOPOL and NEOTEC will be represented by Przemek Szumiłowski, Business Unit Director – Air Springs, and Marta Paszkowiak, Key Account Manager OEM.
Why a bus fair matters to an air spring manufacturer
Few vehicles rely on air suspension as heavily as buses. Air springs carry changing passenger loads, keep the ride comfortable and, in low-floor city buses, lower the vehicle at stops for easier boarding. Stop-and-go routes, long daily operating hours and harsh operating conditions make this a demanding duty for every air spring.
CZECHBUS gathers the people who build, run and maintain these vehicles in one place. Our team will be in Prague to see where the bus market is heading and to talk with manufacturers, operators and service partners about what these changes mean for air springs.
TIP-TOPOL: an air spring manufacturer supplying OE customers
TIP-TOPOL is a family-owned European manufacturer, founded in 1988, that produces air springs for commercial vehicles. The company supplies OE customers in the commercial vehicle industry and serves the aftermarket under the NEOTEC brand.
OE cooperation sets a clear standard. OE customers expect consistent quality from batch to batch, complete documentation and processes that stay stable over long production runs. Meeting these expectations every day shapes how TIP-TOPOL develops, produces and tests its air springs.
How the aftermarket benefits: OELine™
NEOTEC brings this OE experience into the aftermarket. Under OELine™, OE and aftermarket air springs are made with the same materials, within one manufacturing discipline, following the same process standards – stable, repeatable and compliant.
For distributors and bus operators, this means replacement air springs from a manufacturer whose processes are shaped by OE requirements. OELine™ is the process layer of the NEOTEC Quality Triangle™:
- NRX™ – material: a proprietary rubber compound designed for an operating range of −50 °C to +60 °C.
- OELine™ – process: one manufacturing discipline for OE and aftermarket production.
- N9M™ – proof: laboratory endurance testing that confirms performance.
What we will follow in Prague
The fair covers new vehicles, public transport technology, telematics and service equipment. Our representatives will focus on:
- new bus platforms and what they mean for suspension components,
- the shift towards zero-emission fleets and what it means for suspension loads,
- service and maintenance expectations of public transport operators,
- the role of replacement part quality in vehicle uptime.
Happy to talk about
- OE cooperation: air spring supply for commercial vehicle manufacturers and their projects.
- NEOTEC air springs for buses, trucks and trailers, with 850+ air spring types in the range.
- Quality proof based on the Quality Triangle™ and the NEOTEC Proof Pack.
- Distributor support: technical documentation, a warranty of up to 3 years and ordering through the NEOTEC e-commerce platform.
Material. Process. Proof.
In the aftermarket, a replacement air spring is only as reliable as the system behind it. TIP-TOPOL builds that system for OE customers every day – and NEOTEC makes it available to distributors and their customers – workshops and fleets.
Three proofs. One reliability.
