At Railtex 2007, the Harting Technology Group will feature connector products specifically designed for use within the railway rolling-stock environment.

At Railtex 2007, the Harting Technology Group, Europe's leading manufacturer of interconnection solutions for industrial and transport applications, will feature connector products specifically designed for use within the railway rolling-stock environment.

Harting was the first company worldwide to receive quality certification to the new IRIS international quality standard for the railway industry.

IRIS - International Railway Industry Standard - has been created by UNIFE (the European association of the railway industry), and combines the quality requirements of ISO9001 with the additional requirements of the railway industry.

The aim of IRIS certification is to create an international uniform quality standard for all suppliers of the railway industry, which will make additional extensive individual evaluations and audits unnecessary.

Harting is a major supplier of power and signal connectors to European rolling-stock manufacturers, and participates in many industry standards bodies as well as being a founder member of the IRIS steering committee.

New developments from the company include a family of industrial Ethernet products, including managed switches which are ideally suited to rail applications.
