Rail & Track ballast
Durability and Controlled grading - The pinnacle of railway infrastructure
Rail Ballast serves as a solid bedding beneath railway tracks in order to ensure the smooth functioning of all railway systems. Our hard-wearing ballast acts as a level of protection for railway sleepers in order to keep them in place and maintain optimal track alignment.
Not only does our long-lasting ballast hold the tracks in place, but it also exhibits fantastic drainage properties to minimise any degradation within the tracks. This makes our Rail Ballast the undisputed favourite within the industry.
Track Ballast is a seldom seen specialist product with the goals of providing efficient drainage beneath railway tracks, as well as ensuring a secure and long lasting rail system, especially during high speeds and heavy freight.
RAIL & TRACK BALLAST IN ACTION
Why Rail Ballast?
Rail Ballast is the industry’s first choice in railway security, and can be distributed to you all across the country for any industrial requirements. It works by anchoring the train tracks into place to prevent any chance of movement or degradation, in order to maintain the structural integrity of the tracks. It does this by reducing the amount of tension placed on the ground and minimises any damage to infrastructure.
Our high quality Rail Ballast also boasts exceptional drainage qualities, which is critical in preventing the deformation of the tracks. This secures the integrity of the rail system and limits the potential repercussions that might occur. This application of longevity is reason enough to choose our long-lasting Rail Ballast.
