Vossloh AG is a German rail technology company headquartered in Werdohl, North Rhine-Westphalia, specializing in rail infrastructure products and services. Founded in 1888 by blacksmith Eduard Vossloh, who secured early contracts for rail fasteners from the Royal Prussian Railway, it has evolved into a global leader through strategic acquisitions and innovations like the tension clamp rail fastening system licensed in 1967. The company operates three core divisions: Core Components, producing standardized rail fasteners, concrete ties, and switch systems used in over 65 countries; Customized Modules, manufacturing switches, crossings, and monitoring systems for high-speed and heavy-haul applications; and Lifecycle Solutions, offering maintenance services such as rail grinding, welding, and inspection. With production sites across Germany, France, the US, Australia, and beyond, Vossloh AG serves public and private railway operators, focusing on sustainable, digitalized solutions for track availability and green mobility. Employing around 4,300 people, it emphasizes conservative financing and long-term partnerships in key markets like China, the US, and Europe.
