Special vehicles for your industry
Your vehicles for airport infrastructure.
From logistics to winter service: keeping the airport running.
Ready for your mission
Preparing airports for take-offs.
Catering, refuelling, winter service, cleaning: there are innumerable tasks to be done at an airport, in an environment with highly complex operations, stringent security measures and a detailed schedule. Mercedes‑Benz Trucks offers you the right vehicle for each job – for a smooth process at the airport.
For planes and helicopters to stay on schedule, they need to be refuelled quickly and safely between flights. Mercedes-Benz trucks ensure that you have the right support for this task. They are characterised by high levels of manoeuvrability and a high payload, so you can effortlessly transport the right amount of jet fuel for the airport across the apron. The Econic’s low design height also allows you to drive underneath the wing. So you can simply fly through your tasks.

Beverages and food for passengers, blankets, pillows and magazines: with a highlift on a chassis from Mercedes-Benz Trucks, you can turn aircraft around quickly and reliably. The various advantages of the trucks contribute to a high level of operational reliability. The low-profile design, clear overview from the cab, fully electric drive and various – also airport-specific – safety assistance systems are just a few examples of the features that enable you to manoeuvre quickly and as safely as possible through dynamic traffic situations at the airport and reliably supply the common aircraft types, from Boeing 737 to Airbus A380.

To ensure things keep running smoothly at the airport in winter, runways and taxiways must be cleared of snow and ice – very quickly and sustainably. The terminal apron must also be reliably cleared for the handling of aircraft. Whether in combination with a snowplough or de-icing sprayer, with a cutter/blower or a blower/sweeper: Mercedes-Benz Trucks ensures you have the best solution for your flight operations.

In addition to the usual cleaning requirements, rubber abrasion and metal parts are particular challenges at the airport. Safe airport operations require clean runways. Mercedes-Benz Trucks supports you in maintaining the airport infrastructure with its fast, agile and powerful trucks. After all, in addition to ensuring great cleaning results, it is also important to work quickly to minimise flight interruptions.
