CAF enjoys a long-standing experience of more than 80 years in the design, manufacture and sale of wheel sets, wheels, axles and gear units for the rail market.

Our rolling stock solutions are certified to the principal Quality Assurance schemes, such as IRIS (International Railway Industry Standard), ISO 9001, AAR (Association of American Railroads) or RISAS (Railway Industry Supplier Approval Scheme).

CAF is also approved by the major European rail operators and authorities such as RENFE, SNCF, DB, OBB and SBB amongst others, which has allowed us to strengthen our position as the largest supplier of high-speed platforms in the world.
