Advantages
7 Key benefits
1 Shorter construction times
The construction time and costs can be massively reduced when creating ‘temporary ballast retainers’.
2 Resource savings
The ballast usage and costs can be reduced when creating ‘permanent ballast retainers’.
3 Stability
Ballast bonding can stabilise crossing areas.
4 Safety
Bonding surfaces on high-speed lines increases safety.
5 Cost effectiveness
Bonding surfaces near railway stations enables them to be cleaned more cost effectively.
6 Innovation
Thanks to innovative machine technology, controlled automated bonding can be efficiently realised.
7 Environment
We protect our environment through optimised and minimal material consumption.
Fast, efficient and controlled track ballast bonding
equals major material, time and cost savings!
The advantages for you:
- Shorter construction times
- Lower costs
- Fewer resources (ballast and bracing)
