Ballast mats

Installation of ballast mats by Getzner allows a high level of track elasticity to be achieved. Some of the reasons for installing mats of this kind include the reduction of secondary airborne noise, vibrations, and wear on the ballast. When selecting suitable ballast mats, it is crucial to take into account the specific vibration-related requirements of the individual project.

The efficiency of Getzner ballast mats is based on the ability to precisely determine and control their dynamic stiffness. They also feature excellent quality and are highly cost efficient. They are easy to handle, can be installed quickly and can even be driven on by heavy construction equipment as well. Using a special installation method, Getzner ballast mats have also proven extremely useful in track retrofits. The efficiency and technical superiority of Getzner ballast mats is reflected by the fact that over 3 million m2 of such mats have been installed around the world in

• high speed lines
• standard gauge lines
• light rail systems.
