Our experience of more than 15 years in the railway sector, has allowed us to develop and design, along with our clients, different GRP profiles in order to meet all their needs
The main profiles supplied to the rail sector:
- Interior and exterior fairings (for wall and ceiling lining)
- Floors
The two main advantages that we find in the application of GRP profiles manufactured by the pultrusion method regarding to conventional materials are:
- Lightness: This reduces the weight of the whole train, decreasing the energy consumption when operated.
- Reduction of maintenance costs, especially in relation to plywood.
Other important advantages are:
- Material shape memory (resistant to deformations caused by impact)
- The possibility of manufacturing profiles with complex geometries.
- Thermal, electrical and acoustic insulation.
Thanks to the services that Tecnipul provide, all the profiles can be supplied totally finished, carrying out different process like polishing, painting, and insert gluing. All these processes are performed by Tecnipul, ensuring effective management of all of our client's needs
