We are pleased to announce Dual Inventive’s partnership with K2C Rail which will support us in introducing our portfolio of safety and efficiency products, such as the ZKL 3000 RC, to the wider UK rail supply chain. These innovations will help improve trackside safety whilst simultaneously boosting productivity and efficiency, ultimately delivering a better railway for all.Josh Jackson, Managing Director of Dual Inventive Ltd, said:
This partnership comes at time of significant change within the UK rail sector with plans for the Great British Railway to take over day-to-day operations of the rail infrastructure by the end of 2026.
Dual Inventive and Network Rail have, in collaboration, been working to drive the use of existing technologies, such as the ZKL 3000 RC for T3-A (possession with application), to increase adoption and deployment to enhance safety and reduce cost inefficiencies. Ultimately, this will allow track workers to focus on getting the job done without comprising safety.
