Introducing ebblo – a new brand dedicated to ITCS solutions, emerging from Trapeze

Trapeze has consolidated its expertise in Intermodal Transport Control Systems (ITCS) to launch a new brand: ebblo. This reflects the group’s ambition to drive meaningful change in mobility and to strengthen its global market leadership in delivering purpose-built, next-generation ITCS solutions.

The ebblo suite of solutions demonstrates accelerated investment in emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Vehicle-to-everything (V2X), and cloud-based architectures, enhancing core capabilities including operations control, passenger information, on-board systems, and business intelligence, while promoting interoperability through standard interfaces.

With the constant demand for reliable, sustainable and accessible public transport – and the growing challenges of congestion, limited resources, and rapid response times – the need for innovative and scalable ITCS solutions that adapt to new challenges has never been greater.

By translating global trends into tailored local solutions, the ebblo brand builds on proven strengths – with decades of experience developing infrastructure solutions that are purpose-built for the needs of transport authorities and operators in all regions.

Driving change together

“Today marks the beginning of a new chapter.”, said Will Taroni, General Manager, ebblo International, the international arm of the new brand. “While our name is changing, our commitment to driving innovation and transforming how people move is unwavering. Our specialised ITCS solutions now deliver greater precision and advanced technologies – such as AI and Machine Learning (ML), cloud-based architectures, and enhanced security - to empower our customers to remain at the forefront of mobility innovation.”

Marcel Velten, General Manager, ebblo Western Europe, which operates in the DACH and French-speaking regions, went on to say, “Driven by a strong commitment to quality, innovation and decades of industry expertise, ebblo sets new benchmarks for smarter, greener, and more inclusive transport systems, ready to address the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow. Our new brand streamlines the portfolio, making it easier for our customers to identify the solutions they need and implement them effectively – all while delivering on our steadfast promise to meet the demands of modern, sustainable mobility.”
