Green track
Green track systems – for a better urban climate
Green tracks are the system for modern, environmentally friendly local transportation. It combines noise reduction with improved air quality, microclimate regulation and stray current insulation, ideal for streetcar routes in inner-city areas. The greening creates additional green areas that bind fine dust, store rainwater and provide cooling. The system is based on robust, recycled rubber profiles that are easy to install and can be customized. Emergency access and maintenance-friendly access to the track are also provided. This makes green tracks an indispensable component of sustainable urban planning.
Eco-friendly. Quiet.
Durable.
Green tracks have many properties that improve the city and its infrastructure in the long term: ecologically, technically and economically.
- Effective for stray current insulation
- Cleaner air thanks to fine dust absorption and CO₂ conversion
- Evaporative cooling in summer, rainwater retention
- Noise reduction through encapsulation of the rail, significantly lower emissions
- Recycled, UV and ozone-resistant rubber, 100% recyclable
- Quick installation with self-clamping profiles—no special tools required

Green track system as an integral part of modern urban development
This system is particularly suitable for streetcar routes that run in densely built-up inner cities, along residential areas or through parks. The greenery not only improves the cityscape, but also makes a measurable contribution to reducing urban heat islands and binding particulate matter. In mobility concepts with a focus on climate adaptation, noise reduction and land reclamation, green tracks thus become a functional component of sustainable infrastructure planning.
Technical and ecological advantages in operation
The sturdy clamping profiles made of recycled rubber allow quick installation and at the same time ensure maintenance-friendly access to the rail. This is a decisive advantage for transport companies in urban areas. In addition to sound decoupling and stray current insulation, the green tracks have a permanent temperature-regulating and water-binding effect, even under high traffic loads. The system therefore meets both technical and ecological requirements.
