Identify rail faults before they escalate
Our ultrasonic testing and track geometry equipment give you clear, real-time evidence of rail condition, so you can prioritise the railway maintenance that matters most and avoid unplanned closures.

Every hour of track possession costs money, and every deferred inspection carries risk. As networks face growing traffic, heavier loads and tighter maintenance windows, efficient railway track maintenance is no longer optional. Our equipment, inspection technology and expertise help you keep track available, safe and performing for longer.
Railway track maintenance has never faced more pressure. Heavier axle loads, growing passenger and freight volumes, and the expansion of high-speed and urban lines are all placing strain on track that was built for different demands. Extreme weather adds a further layer of difficulty, accelerating wear in ways that are increasingly hard to predict.
Despite this, track possession windows are shrinking, not growing. Engineers have less time to complete inspection, repair and renewal work, often in difficult conditions. The stakes are high, with risks including costly delays and real risk to the workforce.
Reactive rail infrastructure maintenance is expensive and disruptive. Waiting for a fault to surface means unplanned closures, emergency call-outs and delays that ripple across the whole timetable. Many networks are also contending with a shrinking pool of skilled labour, making it harder to resource every railway maintenance job to the high standard required.
The solution is two-fold:
Our ultrasonic testing and track geometry equipment give you clear, real-time evidence of rail condition, so you can prioritise the railway maintenance that matters most and avoid unplanned closures.
Rely on our rail cutting, drilling, screwing and clipping equipment to get more done in every possession. Built for durability and ease of use, it speeds up track work without compromising on quality, minimising disruption to services and communities.
Our teams bring decades of railway track maintenance expertise, from training and commissioning to after-sales support. Whenever a challenge arises on your network, you have direct access to specialists who have solved it before, wherever in the world you're working.

Did you know?
Pandrol has manufactured so many rail fastenings over its history that if you lined them all up, you would have enough to build a railway track that stretches all the way from the Earth to the Moon (and we are currently working on the return trip!).
