For over 40 years, with the help of Carriers and Coachbuilders, the research and expertise of the BHD group has resulted in the patenting of safety and protection technologies for today’s transport sector as well as the planning for future advances. BHD group’s leading subsidiary, BRETAGNE BACHES, now known as BHD INDUSTRIES, has conducted many technological developments which have resulted in a series of major innovations for the safety of transport.
