Concrete Sleepers
Engineered for durability and performance
Concrete Sleepers
Composite Sleepers
Smarter, sustainable track solutions
We introduced EFG TieTek design composite sleepers to India as a durable, eco-friendly alternative to wood and steel. Made from recyclable materials and tested to AREMA standards, they offer a service life of 60+ years. RDSO-approved and in use on Indian Railways since 2002, our sleepers set new benchmarks in strength, safety, and sustainability.
Our Composite Sleeper Range
Standard Composite Sleepers
- Designed as a direct replacement for wooden and steel channel sleepers.
- Manufactured to AREMA standards, with proven installation across global railroads.
- Life span of 40–60 years, resistant to corrosion, fire, moisture, and insect attack.
Bridge and Girder Applications
- Approved by RDSO for use on steel girder bridges in India.
- Installed successfully across bridges in Northern, Eastern, South Eastern, and North Central Railways since 2002.
Special and Custom Sleepers
- Tailored for ballasted track, open-deck bridges, points and crossings, and level crossings.
- Flexible for ballastless and slab track systems, including metro applications.
Why Choose Composite Sleepers
