edge
Accessible rubber platform edge for enhanced comfort and protection
edge is an elastic, profiled rubber platform edge specifically designed for public transport stops. It enables comfortable, accessible boarding and alighting across different vehicle types and platform geometries. The flexible material protects sliding steps and vehicle bodies, reducing damage and maintenance requirements. Installation is quick and straightforward, even in confined urban spaces. Combined use with buses is also possible at designated stops.

Solutions for multimodal public transport stops
edge is ideal for stops serving both trams and buses, where vehicles of varying widths or door heights operate. Its flexible geometry and elastic material allow adaptation to curved alignments, limited space, and variable platform heights. This ensures comfortable and safe boarding, even at transfer points or high-traffic urban stops.
Technical advantages during Installation and operation
Thanks to pre-assembled modules, edge can be installed in existing facilities or under tight schedules without heavy machinery. The elastic rubber profiles reduce wear on steps and boarding edges. The system not only improves passenger comfort but also extends vehicle lifespan and reduces maintenance costs for stops in municipal transport infrastructure.
