ABOUT US
We are rolling-stock professionals with a passion for public transportation solutions and extensive know-how and network in the rolling stock industry. We have chosen this business sector as our playground and we love to work in it. It’s a privilege and a passion.
What today is Unstad started as a development project to establish PROSE on the ground in the Norwegian rolling stock market (ie trains, trams, subways, etc.) and an office was started in the fall of 2017. Two years later, the PROSE Group redefined its need to be present and consolidates its resources in its traditional markets. During the same period, we who work here had established a clear presence in the Norwegian industry and decided in December 2019 to buy out the Norwegian part of the company to stand on its own as an independent company.
WHAT´S IN A NAME?
Unstad started as a breakout from PROSE in December 2019 and we are rolling-stock professionals with a passion for public transport in general and the rolling stock industry in particular. This is a way of life and our livelihood. It is a privilege and a passion. We are like the small community Unstad in Lofoten where the road ends in a wild and beautiful bay and you will find an epicenter for surfers from all over the world with a passion for the perfect wave. The recognition that people with commitment, passion, experience, solid ethical foundations and can-do-attitude will achieve both their own and others' dreams. This is why we chose Unstad as our name. To remind us that it makes personal sense to challenge and strive for our own good - for our customers and for society. Unstad symbolizes for us ingenuity, passion and freedom to deliver the best quality, despite the fact that Unstad is a small place in the world.
