Develop a composite sleeper that combines the best properties of wooden, concrete, Environmental considerations are also playing an increasingly important role in the development of railway sleepers. Our responsibility as a leading developer of railway infrastructure components must therefore be to extend the range of products we offer by an especially eco-friendly and resource-saving alternative to traditional solutions. and plastic sleepers.To use polymer, filler sand and additives to create a completely new and innovative material that can withstand even the most
