Thanks to the practical BA 4V exchangeable battery, which can be charged directly in the tool via USB, Tweo is ready for use anytime, anywhere. The proven "Push+ Release" system ensures controlled application: A shot is only triggered when the stapler nose is firmly pressed onto the workpiece. This prevents accidental self-triggering and ensures precise results. The ergonomic design makes handling easy, even during longer projects. Practical indicators constantly show the battery and staple fill levels to ensure uninterrupted workflow. With the new multi-page stapler attachment included in the scope of delivery, Tweo becomes even more versatile. It transforms the stapler into a powerful office helper in an instant, effortlessly stapling up to 60 sheets of paper and thus impressing even with office and writing tasks. GlassVac: Useful window cleaner for clear vision The product line is complemented by the GlassVac cordless window cleaner, which ensures streak-free cleanliness. Equipped with patented triple-lip technology from Bosch, it delivers flawless results on windows, mirrors, and tiles. A major advantage over its predecessor is the removable 120mm dirty water tank, which can be emptied quickly and hygienically. In addition, the design allows for unrestricted 360° application – GlassVac therefore cleans in any position, even horizontally or overhead. The cordless tool also runs on a flexible BA 4V exchangeable battery, which can be charged directly in the tool via USB port in approximately two hours. With one battery charge, the cleaner runs for up to 35min, which is sufficient for a cleaning area of around 120m2 – equivalent to about 40 windows. The set includes a spray bottle with a washable microfiber cloth and two exchangeable suction heads with widths of 280 and 140mm.

Hydrogen: New Bosch fuel-cell system begins test operations in Madrid

Stuttgart, Germany and Madrid, Spain – In Europe, pressure on urban public transit is mounting: in light of mandatory EU requirements to reduce carbon emissions from city buses by 90 percent by 2030, public transit operators are seeking reliable, emissions-free solutions. To this end, an initial test operation is now launching in Madrid: Equipped with a fuel-cell power module (FCPM) from Bosch, an Irizar bus has been transporting passengers through the Spanish capital for several weeks now. Vehicle operation will focus on routes where the fuel cell’s long range allows it to fully demonstrate its advantages. The operator is the Spanish bus company Alsa. The fuel cell is the perfect complement to battery-electric powertrains – even in bus operations,...says Thomas Pauer, member of the Bosch Mobility sector board and president of Bosch Power Solutions. “Fuel cells are especially well-suited for buses that travel longer distances every day and rarely have the opportunity to charge en route. With this trial, we can clearly demonstrate that Bosch’s fuel-cell technology is ready for the demands of large-scale deployment in passenger transport.” Over the past few weeks, the test vehicle has already undergone extensive testing and received the necessary approval. Day-to-day operation in real conditions will now confirm the robustness and strengths of the fuel-cell powertrain. The test bus is equipped with the FCPM C190 fuel-cell system from Bosch. This compact system is based on a horizontal double stack and delivers a continuous output of 190 kilowatts. With the available hydrogen tank capacity, ranges of over 1,000 kilometers are possible, with refueling times of just 10 to 15 minutes. This means the bus can also be used for intercity service. In addition to the FCPM C190, Bosch also offers the FCPM C300, a system designed for heavy-duty tour buses and trucks. The portfolio is rounded off by the FCPM C100, which, with a continuous power output of 100 kilowatts and a flat design, is the ideal solution for city buses. EU regulations are driving innovation in the bus sector Due to EU regulations, bus operators and city transit companies are increasingly turning to alternatives to diesel engines. In addition to regulations aimed at improving air quality in cities, climate regulations also call for more environmentally friendly powertrain systems. For example, by 2030, carbon emissions of newly registered city buses must be reduced by 90 percent compared to 2019; for all other bus types, this applies from 2040 onward. Vehicles with fuel-cell power modules, which the EU recognizes as zero-emission vehicles, can make an important contribution here. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), just over 38,000 new buses were registered in the EU in 2025. Bosch technology along the entire hydrogen value chain Bosch is strongly committed to building an H 2 economy, and is developing technical solutions for the production, infrastructure, and use of hydrogen. In 2025, the company announced the launch of its Hybrion PEM electrolysis stack for hydrogen production. Bosch is also working on technology for hydrogen engines and offers corresponding components for port and direct injection. At the end of 2025, a team of developers from Bosch won the German Future Prize, the federal president’s award for technology and innovation, for their development of the mobile fuel cell.

Precision redefined: Expert Top Performance Class Laser Measure from Bosch

Stuttgart / Leinfelden – On construction sites, speed, precision, and reliability are crucial. With the new EXPERT EXLM100-39CG laser measure, Bosch presents a professional measuring tool specially developed for demanding applications, such as interior finishing and construction planning. The EXPERT EXLM100-39CG belongs to the Expert top performance class from Bosch , which provides professionals with power tools, measuring technology, and accessories for the highest demands. In addition to the new flagship, Bosch is introducing four other laser measure models: GLM60-31, GLM70-32, GLM80-35C, and GLM100-36CG.New standards with the Bosch High Precision System All tools are based on a new measuring system, the Bosch High Precision System. This high-precision technology ensures reliable measurement results over distances of up to 100 m with a deviation of just ± 1.5 mm. In addition, the laser measures achieve up to four times faster measurement speed compared to previous models – the measurement result appears at the touch of a button. This saves valuable time for professional users in their daily work. Complex data in real-time thanks to Dynamic Sensor Fusion Technology As a tool from the Expert top performance class, the new EXPERT EXLM100-39CG has particularly powerful features that simplify work on the construction site: The innovative Dynamic Sensor Fusion Technology from Bosch intelligently combines data from three precise sensors in the tool. An algorithm fuses this data in real-time. This allows the tool to analyze complex spatial relationships and enables three new measurement modes for maximum efficiency: Two-point measurement: This mode allows determining the distance between any two points, regardless of how they are arranged. This is particularly practical for measuring the width of a facade, the height of a window, or the length of a steel beam from a distance without having to place the tool directly on it. Multipoint area: This mode revolutionizes the area calculation of complex rooms or surfaces. The tool automatically calculates the total area from up to 30 set corner points of an irregular surface. Wall angle: For the exact determination of angles between two walls or objects, this mode offers fast measurement results. For example, architects or construction managers can precisely check construction site conditions in advance. Robust design and user-friendly application For construction site use, the EXPERT EXLM100-39CG is optimally protected. The dust and waterproof housing meets protection class IP 65 and can withstand drops from up to 1.5 m without damage thanks to a reinforced rubber housing. In addition, the tool uses green laser technology, which is significantly more visible to the human eye than red laser dots. This significantly speeds up targeting in bright light conditions. Thanks to the dual power supply, the measuring tool is always ready for use: It can be operated either with conventional AA batteries or the included rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Measurement values can also be transferred directly to the Bosch MeasureOn App via the integrated Bluetooth interface to create digital floor plans and document data without errors.
