About

We are TracTive Suspension. We have been raising the bar for suspension technology since 2010.

TRACTIVE aims to be a force towards the future of suspension. We are lucky to have been active in suspension for many decennia (see History). Our experienced staff is balanced by incorporating a young generation into TracTive. These young engineers approach suspension challenges in novel ways. The two generations are united in their passion for motorsports and dedication to suspension technologies. This leads to technological, practical solutions. It ensures TracTive’s ability to combine profound technological knowledge with flexibility. One day our engineers are working on setting up race cars or motorbikes on the track and the next day they may be doing R&D work for OE companies.

Active

We stand for trACTIVE Suspension. The future of suspension is in active control of every possible suspension parameter. Wherever it brings added value we will choose for active electronic features. Tractive offers suspension system solutions: shock absorber hardware, electronic actuators, control units, sensors, remote controls and algorithms.

Attractive

We stand for @TRACTIVE Suspension. Hard work goes into developing the best suspension for every application. With this hard work comes pride in our product. This pride shows in the looks of the product with a stylish design and moderate colour accents. The attention to detail has led to our company motto: “The Art of Suspension.”

Traction

We stand for optimal Traction. We stand for removing the suspension compromises and displaying the technologies at its core. The goal of developing suspension is to achieve more comfort, safety and/or performance. TracTive focusses on controlling the traction by controlling the processes at the contact patch to the track or road.

TT

We are TracTive Suspension. We have been raising the bar for suspension technology since 2010. Proudly in TracTive stand 2 T’s. TT stands for Tradition and Technology, Tradition und Technologie, Traditie en Technologie, Tradition et Technologie; the words and the meaning remain similar across so many languages. Our white motorbike springs refer to our WP Tradition. Our orange trademark points to our innovative Technology. Our technology is “Designed and made in the Netherlands,” in the heart of the Dutch Suspension Valley.
