ECO-RAIL
EN 1317-2
There is a growing demand for guardrail systems for motorways which com-
bine optimal safety with a high containment and limited space requirements.
Safety, sustainability and European legislation play a large part in this. The
Eco-Rail system meets all requirements: the safest ASI Class A, combined
with a working width of W4. It is therefore a valuable addition to the cur-
rently available systems.
Since the design of the Eco-Rail is based on a standard A-beam, it creates
familiar and uniform road surroundings and combines well with the existing
constructions. Road administration is therefore not required to choose a sy-
stem which is not compatible with other systems or that affects the existing
road surroundings.

Road safety requires that constructions in
an ASI class A must be selected. There-
fore, the Eco-Rail does not require you to
ignore the ASI. Situations which demand
a high containment capacity H2 no longer
exclude Asi A. Eco-Rail com-bines both
advantages. Eco-Rail can therefore be
used on a rigid guardrail system whilst
retaining the advantages of the most
flexible guardrails, such as containment
and ASI class A.
Eco-Rail can be easily connected to
existing guardrail systems. Maintenance
and repairs are simple and the quality is
safeguarded through traceability of the
material on the basis of production
reports and material certificates.
Sustainability and functionality can be
monitored closely because compliance is
guaranteed.
In addition to this, the Eco-Rail is suitable
for the application of the motorcyclist-
friendly crash barrier MOTO-SHIELD.
