Sustainable Modernisation in Sardinia: STRAILway 30 Polymer Sleepers Replace Wooden Sleepers in Turnout Areas

 – 

KRAIBURG STRAIL

A major step towards the future of rail infrastructure: a comprehensive modernisation project is currently under way on Sardinia’s regional rail network. To make the network more efficient, safe and environmentally sustainable in the long term, the operator is turning to innovative materials.

A key part of the renewal programme is the replacement of existing wooden sleepers, particularly in technically demanding turnout areas. STRAILway 30 polymer sleepers are now being used as a durable and sustainable alternative.

The material advantages of STRAILway really come into their own, especially in turnout areas:

  • Extremely long service life: Longer replacement intervals and reduced need for replacement.
  • High weather resistance: Well suited to the climatic conditions and temperature fluctuations of the Mediterranean region.
  • Low maintenance: Helps reduce life-cycle costs (LCC) over the long term.
  • Easy handling: Similar to conventional wooden sleepers in terms of processing and handling.
