The parent company may have gone bankrupt but the Parts division is still very much alive. We recieve packages from them daily, wrapped in HUSS tape.
Huss has actully been bankrupt a couple times in the past. It seems like they never quite have things together financially despite the popularity of their rides. I'd bet they'll just reorganize again and stay in operation.
The parts business will never go away. We recieve Whizzer parts that are now made by Intamin. As they have some of the rights to make parts for some of Anton's rides.
actually a German Steel Comapny was going to buy Huss to continue it soley as a parts business, but after assessing Huss they decided it was to big of a Risk and Huss declared Insolvency and laid off nearly all of their 280 employees at their manufacturing facility in Budapest and offices in Germany.
