Gold for Traktionssysteme Austria
Traktionssysteme Austria GmbH (TSA) was awarded the Export Prize 2025 in the “Industry” category on June 2, 2025. The award ceremony took place during the Exporters’ Nite in the heart of Vienna. This annual award, presented by the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber, recognizes the outstanding achievements of Austrian companies in international markets. A distinguished jury evaluated candidates based on criteria such as export quota, market diversification, innovation, and sustainability. A total of 22 companies were nominated across eight categories, including Trade and Crafts, Commerce, Industry, Information and Consulting, Tourism and Leisure, and Traffic and Transportation as well as the two special categories Global Player and Born Global Champion.

An Evening of Recognition and Prestige
The Exporters’ Nite 2025 brought together the best of Austria’s export industry. In the “Industry” category, TSA emerged as the top performer, surpassing strong competition to win the highest accolade. The jury praised TSA’s innovative strength, sustainable export strategy, and exceptional international presence. The award was accepted by TSA’s CEO Robert Tencl and Johannes Mensdorff-Pouilly, Head of Sales – RAIL.ROAD.SERVICE.

“This award is a powerful acknowledgment of our ongoing commitment to developing high-quality, innovative drive systems for global markets,” said Robert Tencl. “We are proud of this first-place recognition — it’s a celebration of our daily efforts in this dynamic industry. A heartfelt thank you goes out to every TSA employee whose dedication made this success possible. Exporting 96% of our products means that TSA depends heavily on global markets. But at the same time, we are deeply motivated to bring contracts, value creation, and jobs back home to Austria.”
