Geosynthetics have been proven to enhance trackbed performance and significantly extend maintenance intervals.
GEOfabrics has developed a range of class leading geotextiles and composites using a state of the art test facility. Real time rail loading is simultaneously and cyclically applied to the replicated track construction through three hydraulic powered ram actuators. The rams can be programmed to load the installed track dynamically to simulate anything from an empty passenger train to a fully loaded freight train, or an ultra-high-speed train of the future. Trafficking frequencies can be modelled to replicate customers’ specific requirements.

GEOfabrics cover a wide range of sectors.
