The rail industry requires strict compliance to the standards of operation to ensure the delivery of service is exemplary, and the service provider complies with the national harmonized standards, rules and codes of practice. (SFAIRP).
The extension of well managed weed control services helps the railways to demonstrate the affordability of their own services, and the importance they place upon safety mitigation and upholding their duty of care to the general public travelling on their services.
With our accreditations maintained through the internationally recognised ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001, GTE Track Spray continually demonstrate their attention and commitment to the quality, safety and environmental aspects of vegetation control across each of the client networks we service.
In addition to these standards, we also are accredited to AgSafe, Aquipa, Avetta and other recognised industry compliance requirements and standards.
