Track and Switch Inspections for Safe and Reliable Rail Infrastructure

Track and switch systems are subject to heavy loads due to daily railway operations. Regular inspections are therefore essential to detect wear at an early stage, prevent failures, and ensure the long-term safety and availability of rail infrastructure.

HERING supports railway operators with digitally assisted track and switch inspections, the use of advanced measuring and testing equipment, and individually developed maintenance strategies. The goal is to identify potential damage early and implement cost-effective maintenance and repair measures.

From inspection and maintenance to repair, HERING provides integrated and reliable solutions for a safe, high-performance, and sustainably available rail infrastructure.

Inspection services:

  • Digitally assisted track and switch inspections
  • Use of advanced measuring and testing equipment
  • Development of tailored maintenance strategies

HERING sustainability

At HERING, we see ourselves as pioneers in the field of sustainability. As early as 1996, we were the first construction company in Germany to obtain EMAS certification. Every three years, we publish an environmental statement documenting our goals and how we have achieved them. Actually, for the first time, we published a sustainability report with an integrated environmental statement in accordance with EMAS - a logical next step in view of our ecological and social responsibility. It documents how we deal internally and externally with the issues that are essential to our future viability.
