Industries and operations where this product is used.
Eisenbahnschwellen (Schwellen) bilden das Fundament der Schienenkonstruktion und verteilen die Lasten der Schienen auf das Schotterbett. Lankhorst EP stellt Eisenbahnschwellen aus recyceltem Kunststoff her, die eine wartungsfreie Nutzungsdauer von über 50 Jahren bieten — und damit deutlich besser abschneiden als Holz in Bezug auf Haltbarkeit, Umweltbelastung und Gesamtbetriebskosten.
Other products in this category.
High-strength steel bar systems for post-tensioning, stay cables, tie-backs, and structural bracing applications. Macalloy bars use cold-drawn high-strength steel with threaded end connections that enable precise tensioning and adjustment on site.
High-strength galvanized structural strand for cable-stayed bridges, suspension bridges, post-tensioned structures, and architectural cable applications. Manufactured with precisely controlled lay lengths and zinc-coated wires that deliver consistent mechanical properties across the full cable assembly.
Fibre-reinforced foam urethane (FFU) sleepers for switches, crossings, and special trackwork applications. FFU combines the machinability of timber with the durability of synthetic materials, enabling complex geometries for turnouts and S&C layouts that recycled plastic sleepers cannot achieve.
