The ballasted track system with prestressed concrete sleeper is the most widely used track system in the world today. The ratio between economy and reliability is unbeatable. Due to the high quantities produced, the design of these sleepers needs to be optimized in order to take maximum advantage of the economic benefits of the ballast/concrete sleeper system. RAILONE is therefore very familiar with the current standards for the design and manufacture of prestressed concrete sleepers from Europe (EN), North America (AREMA), Asia (diverse), or Australia (AS), among others, and can offer its customers a noticeable advantage here.

Over the past 30 to 40 years, ballastless track has advanced tremendously in numerous applications worldwide. As a result, solutions are now available for a wide variety of applications such as bridges, tunnels, turnouts, etc. This - and the existence of generally applicable standards for slab tracks - simplifies and shortens approval procedures and risks. In addition, construction methods have been developed that enable fast and economical slab track construction. Life cycle and total costs are often lower than those of conventional ballastless track systems.  So it is no surprise that nowadays people are laying out new lines exclusively for slab track applications.
