Rail Infrastructure Solutions

Cable Protection & Inspection Systems Designed for high-load rail environments

UniSeals IQ systems are developed and documented for use in rail infrastructure projects, where load-bearing capacity, safety margins and long-term durability are critical. Our solutions are engineered to withstand train loads, side forces and complex ground conditions, making them suitable for installation in and around railway tracks, stations and critical infrastructure corridors.

Proven performance under real rail conditions

Our systems are backed by a combination of physical testing and engineering validation, ensuring reliability in demanding rail applications:

  • check Load-bearing capacity up to 400–500 kN (tested systems)
  • check Documented behaviour under lateral loads and deformation
  • check Engineering calculations based on Eurocode and rail-specific standards
  • check Verified performance in both ultimate limit state (ULS) and serviceability (SLS)

This ensures that installations meet the requirements of infrastructure owners, contractors and engineering consultants.

CASE STUDY

Integrated Cable Infrastructure for one of Europe's Larges Rail Projects Rail Baltica, Baltic States

Project

A new high-speed railway connecting the Baltic countries with the European rail network.

Challenge

A future-critical rail project required a cable infrastructure solution combining long-term reliability, flexibility, efficient installation, and safe access.

Why Uniseals

IQ Quattro and IQ Futura provide one integrated, modular system for cable protection and access – designed to simplify installation and adapt to changing infrastructure requirements over time.

Type-Approved Modular Access Solutions for Danish Rail Infrastructure Aarhus Central Station, Denmark

Project

The modernisation of Aarhus Central Station prepares one of Denmark’s key railway hubs for electric operations and increased capacity.

Challenge

A complex station environment required robust and documented access solutions for cables and technical installations – adapted to specific dimensions, load requirements and long-term operation.

Why Uniseals

IQ Futura with Powerframes and composite covers provides a modular, project-configured solution type-approved for Danish rail infrastructure – making it a strong fit for Banedanmark projects with high demands on documentation, load performance and long-term reliability.

Key advantages for rail infrastructure

  • check Designed for high-load environments (train load & side force)
  • check Documented through testing, engineering and third-party validation
  • check Durable materials (GRP / HDPE) with high chemical and corrosion resistance
  • check Suitable for long-term underground installations
  • check Flexible modular systems for efficient installation

Reference projects in rail infrastructure

UniSeals IQ solutions are applied in major rail infrastructure projects across Europe, supporting both new builds and upgrades of existing networks:

  • check Baltic Rail – cable infrastructure solutions for large-scale cross-border rail development
  • check HS2, UK – contribution to high-speed rail infrastructure with focus on durability and performance
  • check Banedanmark (Denmark) – solutions for national rail infrastructure projects and ongoing network upgrades

These projects reflect our ability to deliver documented, high-performance solutions for complex and safety-critical environments.

CASE STUDY

Compact Cable Infrastructure for a Complex Urban Rail Environment Greater Copenhagen Light Rail Denmark

Project

Construction of new light rail infrastructure through DTU Lyngby Campus and the Greater Copenhagen area as part of the Ring 3 light rail project.

Challenge

A dense campus and urban environment required a compact, continuous cable infrastructure coordinated with existing roads, buildings and utility networks.

Why Uniseals

UniSeals supplied approximately 10 km of IQ Quattro 4-Way – combining several cable ducts in one structured system to support rapid installation and efficient use of the limited space along the route.
