Company brief
MULAG Fahrzeugwerk Heinz Wössner GmbH u. Co. KG is a German manufacturer of specialised ground support equipment (GSE) for airports and road maintenance machinery, headquartered in Oppenau, Baden-Württemberg. With over 70 years of engineering heritage, MULAG is regarded as one of Germany's leading manufacturers of specialised vehicles and serves customers worldwide across both its airport and road maintenance divisions.
For airport apron operations, MULAG manufactures a comprehensive range of GSE covering aircraft tow tractors (Flughafenschlepper), conveyor belt loaders (Förderbandwagen including the Orbiter series), and container/pallet transporters. These vehicles serve the loading, unloading, and baggage transport functions on the apron and are deployed at commercial airports, cargo hubs, and military airfields globally. The Orbiter belt loaders are notable for their anti-collision assistant (ACA) system, which uses sensors to prevent operator mistakes and protect the vehicle from apron collisions — a key safety feature in high-traffic ramp environments. Alternative propulsion options including hydrogen fuel cell and full-electric drivetrains have been part of MULAG's product strategy for several years, addressing the aviation industry's push to decarbonise ground operations.
For road maintenance, MULAG produces a separate line of boom attachments for Unimog and other carrier vehicles covering mowing, roadside vegetation management, and tunnel washing. The company exhibits at major international aviation trade events including Airport Show Dubai and GSE Expo Europe, confirming its active commercial presence in the GCC and international airport markets. MULAG's website is primarily German-language but the company markets globally through a regional sales network.
