The company`s main sector of business is manufacturing products for railway, road, and civil construction applications. Today we are carrying out a great deal of projects, many of which have a high degree of complexity. The сompany is strongly involved in the implementation of the national “Railway Transport Development Strategy for the Period until 2030”. As the Russian railway industry is continually growing, the state’s requirements to construction get increasingly stringent every year and do not merely match but often surpass the standards set by large businesses. Our track record in implementation of national-scale projects guarantees the high quality of work and we are proud of our financial performance. Moreover, RZDstroy is expanding the range of its operations. Now our company has become a truly multi-discipline building company.
