We are committed to reuse

Not by persuading companies to make compromises, but by making reuse the better choice.
When used vehicles, spare parts and components are easy to find, reliable and cost-effective, acting sustainably becomes the obvious choice. 

How railauction.plus promotes the circular economy

Number 1
Enable reuse We bring unused railway freight to the fore and give it a second chance. This keeps valuable resources in circulation and extends their life cycles.
Number 2
Connecting companies across Europe We bring sellers and buyers together and provide easy access to second-hand and unused vehicles, spare parts and components.
Number 3
Making trade simple and transparent We simplify the entire process – from search to sale – and, through clear procedures, create a reliable platform for the rail industry.

Resources in circulation rather than in storage

Full warehouses on the one hand, a shortage of spare parts on the other – we want to make better use of this potential.
Many railway assets are in perfect working order or even unused, yet they are not being put to new use. 
Not because they have no value, but because in day-to-day operations there is often a lack of time and resources to find suitable buyers and initiate the sales process. 
railauction.plus makes these stocks visible, connects companies with one another and facilitates their easy reuse.
In this way, we extend product lifecycles, conserve valuable resources and promote the circular economy in the rail industry.

Our goal

We turn unused stock into new opportunities. 
Our aim is a rail industry in which reuse is the first choice – because it makes economic sense, can be implemented efficiently and is sustainable. 
railauction.plus provides the digital infrastructure to achieve this: a Europe-wide marketplace that makes existing resources visible, connects companies and supports the circular economy with simple processes and attractive terms.
