Thermotechnical solutions and products for industrial use on railways and trams

When outside temperatures fall, requirement for rail vehicles increase. On the one hand, the function of the safety-related and sometimes sensitive operating technology – for example steps, sand pipes and switchboards – must be guaranteed. On the other hand, the travel temperature must remain at a comfortable level for staff and passengers.

With our extensive product range and customer-specific special solutions, we are making a vital contribution to the technical progress of rail transport. Our international customers also know what they can always rely on: innovative products and solutions based on high quality materials and workmanship.

The silicone heating elements we have developed and produced correspond and comply with the necessary standards and approvals such as:

  • Fire safety to DIN 5510-2 (05/2009
  • Fire safety to DIN EN 45545-2 (08/2013)
  • Shock and vibration to DIN EN 61373
  • Adhesive bonding certification to DIN EN 6701 -2 class A3
