Railway
We support all our customers and secure the development of their railway devices, whatever their sectors of activity (infrastructure, onboard equipment, interior and exterior appearance parts, etc.), whether private or public.
Our recognized expertise in implementing thermoplastics, thermosets, composites, and metals enables us to offer comprehensive, tailored support that meets international regulatory requirements (EN 45545, ISO 9001, Ecovadis Silver Medal, etc.).
We are a preferred partner for our customers at every stage of device development: design, prototyping, industrialization, qualification and validation, through to production.
With more than 25 sites in 9 countries, our group has international coverage to support your railway projects effectively.
CLAYENS railway solutions
A comprehensive, tailored offering for the development of your innovative projects
Research & Development
Our multidisciplinary R&D team can support you at every stage of your project development, from concept to market launch.
Industrialisation
We industrialize our partners' projects by developing tailored processes to transform materials, assemble, and qualify the railway device.
Qualification et validation
Our products are developed and manufactured in compliance with international railway standards (EN45545).
Production
Our core business is the production of technical and appearance parts in thermosets, thermoplastics, composites, and/or metals. Thanks to our footprint in Europe, North America, and the Maghreb, we meet all our customers' expectations.
Railway components
We develop structural, safety, or appearance parts, for infrastructure or onboard applications from design through to production.
Nos technologies
Thermoset
Thermosets are particularly resistant materials, suited to demanding environments thanks to their ability to withstand mechanical, climatic, thermal, and electrical stresses (injection, compression, injection-compression, thermoset machining).
Thermoplastic / Composite
Thermosets are particularly resistant materials, suited to demanding environments thanks to their ability to withstand mechanical, climatic, thermal, and electrical stresses (injection, compression, injection-compression, thermoset machining).
Machining
Machining is an ideal process for manufacturing parts in small series, optimizing costs and return on investment (machining of thermoplastics, thermosets, composites, carbon, and aluminum).
Metal Engineering / Metalloplastics
Metal, thanks to its strength and robustness, is an essential material for manufacturing technical parts, offering reliability, performance, and great design freedom (precision cut parts, assembled, bent, cambered, metal springs).
Additive manufacturing
Additive manufacturing produces custom parts, ideal for small series, with full support from design through to production (SLS (powder), MJ (resin), FDM (filaments)).
White paper Clayens
We present our white paper "Eco-design, sustainability and performance", dedicated to the long-term reliability challenges of railway components. Through the example of railway insulators, this document highlights best practices in design and material selection to meet electrical, mechanical, environmental, and fire-smoke requirements in the sector.
This white paper explores the role of engineering plastics, composites, and thermosets in developing more sustainable, high-performance solutions adapted to the constraints of modern rail.
The goal is to help manufacturers design reliable, durable, eco-designed components that can guarantee the safety and performance of infrastructure over the long term.
