Plasser & Theurer is a private company in Austria that for over 60 years has concentrated on the development, construction and export of track maintenance machines. They are a part of the railway system and make a great contribution towards its safety, reliability and cost-efficiency.

Until the middle of the 20th century, track laying and track maintenance required heavy manual labour. Work sites were characterised by manual methods of work that made large numbers of staff necessary. Today, railway construction is among the most efficient industrial sectors with the highest level of automation.

The historic achievement of Plasser & Theurer is the significant contribution it has made to this development. Since 1953, they have been setting technological milestones enabling higher working speeds, higher quality of work and, on the bottom line, economic advantages for their customers and the railway.
