As a manufacturer of a large number of sheet-metal and mechanically welded assemblies, subassemblies, and specialised machined parts for the railway industry, it was only right that Gattefin should exhibit at the 9th international railway industry trade show (SIFER), which was held at the Grand Palais in Lille between the 24th and 26th March.

This year’s exhibition was a lively event at a time when the industry’s prospects for growth are not always bright.

The rail industry is moving ahead and innovation was very much in evidence at this large meeting of the international rail industry.
