Pilot Project with TOYOTA

As part of the Toyota Acceleration program, PurCity successfully completed the "Wall-GapS" pilot project with Toyota Motor Europe in Brussels. This achievement was the result of seamless teamwork and collaboration with our German partners at ABICOR BINZEL.

The process, from pre-fabrication and implementation to final on-site testing with Toyota's local contractors, showcased our ability to deliver innovative, sustainable solutions under demanding conditions. The successful outcome validates our technology and paves the way for future projects.
