Vossloh AG is a rail technology company based in Werdohl in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The SDAX-listed group has achieved sales of around €930 million in 2016 and, as of 2017[update], had more than 4,000 employees.[2]
Vossloh previously owned three business units for Electrical Systems, Locomotives, and Rail Vehicles. These were sold in 2015, 2020 and 2016 respectively. The brand name "Vossloh" is still used for products not related to Vossloh AG. For example, Vossloh locomotives are since 2020 made by China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC).[3]
Vossloh is a global market leader both for rail fasteners and switch systems. In North America, Vossloh is the leading manufacturer of concrete railway ties, and offers a globally unique grinding technology, so-called high-speed grinding, for track maintenance.
Customers are generally public and private railway companies and network operators, as well as regional and municipal transport companies.
Since its restructuring, Vossloh has been focusing on target markets China, the US, Russia and Western Europe. Important Vossloh production sites are in Germany, France, Luxembourg, Poland and Scandinavia. In addition, the group has subsidiaries in Asia, North and South America, Australia and Russia.[2][4]
