Anocote Polska Sp z o.o., w partnerstwie z zakładem Koelner Rawlplug IP Sp. z o.o. w Łańcucie, dostarcza nowoczesne, przyjazne dla środowiska systemy ochrony antykorozyjnej, które wzmacniają wydajność, pełną identyfikowalność i zrównoważony rozwój komponentów kolejowych.
Local capability for critical rail infrastructure
Rail operators and manufacturers are increasingly focused on ensuring that components—from bogie assemblies to brake system brackets—meet stringent durability, safety, and environmental standards. By situating its operations within the Koellner industrial ecosystem, Anocote Polska provides immediate access to high-quality coating technology, shortening the supply chain and enhancing local support for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
“Poland’s rail industry depends on reliability, speed, and traceable quality,” says Pawel Jagustyn, European Divisional Director, Anochrome Group. “Our presence in Łańcut allows us to provide coatings that protect vital components such as bogie assemblies, overhead line fittings, and couplers—supporting long-term operational performance while reducing environmental impact.”
PFAS-free, low-VOC, low-carbon coatings
Anocote Polska specialises in PFAS-free, low-VOC, water-based zinc flake coatings designed for harsh rail environments. These systems deliver exceptional corrosion protection while supporting sustainability objectives. By avoiding solvent-based chemistries and utilising low-temperature curing processes, Anocote Polska helps rail manufacturers and suppliers reduce carbon emissions, energy consumption, and hazardous waste - aligning with Poland’s broader ESG goals.
These coatings are particularly suitable for structural brackets, couplings, and other fasteners exposed to C5/CX environments, where durability and low maintenance requirements are essential for fleet reliability.
Traceability and certified quality
Operating under recognised Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001, ISO 14001), Anocote Polska ensures that every batch of coating can be fully traced and documented, supporting compliance with regulatory and procurement standards. By co-locating within the Koellner industrial campus, the company facilitates seamless integration with component manufacturing, improving scheduling, quality validation, and delivery speed for rail OEMs.
Components that could benefit from this integrated approach include bogie suspension components, brake system brackets, and overhead line fittings, all of which are exposed to varying environmental conditions and require consistent protective coatings to meet long-term service expectations.
Adding value through local integration
Anocote Polska’s on-site presence allows for rapid response to specification changes, small-batch pilot trials, and coordinated technical support—reducing the logistical complexity and lead times typically associated with cross-border coating processes. For rail projects where adherence to safety, environmental, and operational standards is non-negotiable, this local capability adds measurable value.
This model also strengthens Poland’s rail manufacturing ecosystem by supporting domestic production, enabling local component suppliers to meet OEM demands more efficiently, and improving resilience in the supply chain.
Sustainability as a competitive advantage
Beyond the performance of the coatings themselves, Anocote Polska is committed to sustainable manufacturing practices, including energy-efficient curing, minimal waste generation, and ongoing reduction of carbon footprint. By aligning environmental responsibility with technical excellence, the company helps rail manufacturers deliver projects that are both reliable and sustainable.
“Our focus is on protecting vital rail components while helping the industry meet environmental targets,” adds Pawel Jagustyn. “Through sustainable, low-impact coatings delivered locally, we help operators and OEMs reduce risk, enhance component life, and maintain Poland’s rail infrastructure to world-class standards.”
Anocote Polska invites rail OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and infrastructure operators to collaborate on sustainable, certified corrosion protection solutions. The team offers consultation, pilot coating trials, and on-site audits to demonstrate the benefits of local, low-impact surface technology.
