We are a research and development institute operating for 70 years in the railway sector.

We own a test track for conducting various experiments. We also posses the necessary infrastructure for R&D studies in the field of railway transport.

We are a Notified Body No. NB 1467 to the Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2016/797 of 11 May 2016 on the interoperability of the rail system in the European Union for the assessment of all interoperable structural subsystems, i.e. Infrastructure, Energy, Control-Command and Signalling Track-side and On-board subsystems, rolling stock and traffic operation and management subsystems. The notification is for indefinite time.

The main goal of product certification is to protect the market from unsafe products (health, life and environment threatening) and raise safety of product use. Safety is the main factor particularly in the case of products for transport, especially railways. Certification procedures are a formal instrument to assure meeting product requirements.

The Institute conducts various R&D Studies and opinions in the field of railway transport. We operate in the following areas:

• Infrasrtucture
• Electrical Power Engineering
• Traffic Control and Telecommunication
• Rollingstock
• Materials and Structure Elements
