CORE COMPETENCIES

A connected manufacturing capability - not a collection of suppliers.

Holdwell's railway track component business is built around complete in-house manufacturing across rubber, plastic and metal components. Our capabilities combine manufacturing know-how with in-house design engineers, production teams, R&D, a state-of-the-art laboratory and application testing equipment - enabling custom solutions for conventional, heavy haul, metro and high-speed rail applications.

01

Rubber Compounding

In-house rubber production and formulation capabilities support consistent performance across rail pads, gaskets and other elastomeric components.

02

Precision Metal Forming

Hot forging for spring-steel rail clips plus an in-house rolling mill for base and tie plates give direct control over finished metal components.

03

Polymer Moulding

Polyamide, polyethylene and other moulded polymer components are produced for the tolerances and demands of railway fastening applications.

04

Engineering & Design

In-house design engineers and production teams work together to develop custom solutions around track type, drawings and technical requirements.

05

Testing & Quality

State-of-the-art laboratory and application testing equipment support repeated internal checks and quality control before dispatch.

CAPABILITY IN ACTION

Built for the applications that define modern rail.

Solutions and components for high/semi-high speed rail, metro rail, heavy haul and bridge applications - across both ballasted and ballastless track environments.
