Company headquarters
From Ingersheim to the world
ACPS Automotive was founded in Stuttgart in 1955 under the name ORIS. Through its pioneering spirit and innovative strength, the company has developed into the global market and technology leader in the production of towbars.
Since 2020, we have had our headquarters in Ingersheim, Swabia. This means that our company headquarters have been located in the greater area of Stuttgart, one of the most traditional and important automotive regions in the world, since the company was founded.
More than 200 people work at the headquarters, where all commercial functions and the central corporate departments such as Sales, Marketing, Project Management, Legal, Human Resources, IT and Finance are consolidated.
Competence centre
for towbars
The development centre including Research & Development, Prototype Construction, Safety Testing and Quality Management departments is also based in Ingersheim. As a global technology leader, we develop the majority of our products here, which are destined for the international automotive industry as original equipment and the aftermarket for retrofits under the ORIS brand.
Partner to the automotive industry
Characterised by technical progress
As an innovative manufacturer and partner to the automotive industry, we have been creating sustainable added value for customers, business partners and employees for around 70 years.
ACPS Automotive is still characterized by innovation and technological progress in the field of towbars. Our products provide a particularly safe and convenient connection between vehicle and trailer or carrier and, in addition to classic combustion engines, are of course also ideally suited to new drive types such as electric and hybrid. In our national and international production sites, we manufacture a total of over 2 million towbars every year.
