Deutsche Bahn is modernizing its route network with digital interlocking technologies and European Train Control System (ETCS): fewer signals, more efficiency, higher capacity. This major project requires qualified LST specialist companies along the entire route. Klefenz GmbH has opened a branch in Germersheim specifically for this purpose and works as a DB-qualified LST partner for work as part of the “DB Digital Rail” project.
The services include the prefabrication, assembly and integration of signal components, cable installation and cabling outdoors, as well as participation in the commissioning and functional testing of the installed systems.
The DB Digital Rail project places special demands on contractors: The built-in components are highly specialized, the tolerances are tight, and every installation step must be fully documented. For this purpose, Klefenz has set up a specialized LST team that is familiar with the technical requirements of the project and works closely with DB project management.
Proximity to the construction site is crucial for an LST order over a distance of hundreds of kilometers. Klefenz has deliberately established a branch in Germersheim, which serves as a basis for the LST teams on the track. Short journeys, quick response times and direct contact with the DB project team on site — that is the operational advantage of this decision.

The assembled LST components are part of one of Deutsche Bahn's largest modernization projects. Klefenz is thus contributing to an infrastructure that equips the rail network for the requirements of the coming decades. The project confirms the strategic decision to invest in LST expertise and regional presence.
Whether you are planning a demanding construction project or looking for a new career path – Klefenz stands for experience, reliable collaboration and a clear commitment to quality. If you want to realise a project with us or become part of our team, we look forward to starting the conversation and taking the next step together.
