Why Twinfix Is the Trusted Choice for Non-Fragile Roof Glazing Across the UK Rail Network

By | 26 June 2025

 

From heritage station refurbishments to modern transport hubs, the UK rail network demands roofing solutions that deliver on safety, longevity, and visual appeal. At Twinfix, we’ve built a strong track record of providing roof glazing and canopy systems that meet the complex requirements of rail environments – all while maintaining the highest standards of quality, compliance and aesthetics.Whether it’s a new-build platform canopy or the sensitive restoration of a listed structure, our team works closely with station operators, architects and contractors to deliver reliable, non-fragile solutions that stand the test of time.

 

Engineered for the Rail Sector

The demands of the rail industry are unique. Environments must be safe for passengers and staff, installations must minimise disruption to station operations, and materials must be low maintenance while complementing often historically significant architecture.

That’s why so many rail partners choose Twinfix. Our in-house design and manufacturing capabilities allow us to tailor solutions to each site, ensuring every installation is fit for purpose, non-fragile to ACR[M]001:2019, and compliant with Network Rail’s stringent standards.

Our Multi-Link-Panel NF system is a key component in this offering – a modular, quick-fit polycarbonate glazing panel that offers exceptional durability and a clean, modern finish. Lightweight yet robust, it enables safer access and simpler installation, helping to reduce possession time and associated costs.
