History

The history of the Bavo Poříčí brand dates back to the 1980s, when the production of bellows for trams, as was common at the time, was established as an associated production of the Dolní Újezd collective farm. The entire production capacity was contracted to ČKD Praha, the world's largest tram manufacturer at the time.

After the collapse of the eastern markets and the RVHP, tram production began to decline and thus the demand for Poříčí products decreased. Josef Voral took over the stagnating production and founded the company Bavo.

We reconstructed an originally private building in Poříčí into the headquarters of Bavo.

In 2006, the first SOR bus was produced, to which Bavo supplied the bellows. And because the offer was attractive and there was no capacity to satisfy the offer, the company management decided to expand the production hall. Since then, we have produced bellows for about 800 buses.

A new hall was built and cooperation with SOR continued. 2007 - expanding production required the construction of a new production hall.

In order to increase quality and production capacity, the first cutting plotter was purchased in 2010.

The company BAVO Poříčí s. r. o. was founded and took over the more than twenty-year tradition of manufacturing transition and traction bellows from Mr. Josef Voral BAVO Poříčí.

The confirmation of production quality and standardization of production processes was confirmed in 2014 by obtaining the ISO 9001 quality certificate. At the same time, in this year we completed and expanded the production hall.

We're replacing the cutting plotter with a laser plotter. It's a Christmas present, it will appear with us on December 17, 2015. Since the same year, our development department has also started up in our company, trying to capture the current trends in the production of joint systems.

We are working on obtaining the quality certificate ČSN 15085 for welds for railway rolling stock.
