Regulators, operators, manufacturers and suppliers must now respond to the needs of people who want to see the public transport they use demonstrate a real commitment to innovation, sustainability and customer centricity. With our history and experience in public transport, vehicle experts can help you find ways to optimise the manufacturing processes and drive down costs, reduce weight, increase durability and improve reliability for trains and buses.
Elastic bonding has been used for decades in the rail industry to join dissimilar structural materials, including panels, walls, roofs and floors. Our high-strength structural adhesives replace welds, rivets and mechanical fasteners to enable assembly of lightweight designs and optimise acoustic performance, which also contributes to overall weight reduction.
