Transport & Rail Technology: Safety and Durability in Rail Transport
Fire-tested door seals, window rubbers for rail vehicles, and edge protection profiles for platforms — our elastomer solutions meet the strictest standards of public transport.
Rail Vehicles — Seals & Profiles
- ✅ Door seals for trains and trams — using suitable fire-retardant compounds; EN 45545-2 evidence depends on requirement set and hazard level
- ✅ Window seals and glazing — EPDM profiles for vibration-damping window frames
- ✅ Gangway seals — flexible bellows and fold profiles between railway cars
- ✅ Floor seals and threshold profiles — slip-resistant, abrasion-resistant, long-lasting
Infrastructure & Platforms
- ✅ Platform edge profiles — Edge protection and tactile guidance elements made of PVC and TPE
- ✅ Cable protection pipes and cable ducts — For signal and power supply along the tracks
- ✅ Vibration dampers under tracks — EPDM pads for structure-borne noise reduction in residential areas
Recommended Materials
| Material | Application in rail technology |
|---|---|
| EPDM | Door seals, window rubbers, gangway bellows, track dampers |
| PVC | Cable ducts, platform edges, cable protection conduits |
| TPE | Fire protection profiles (EN 45545-2; requirement set/hazard level project-specific), tactile guidance elements, soft-touch handrails |
